🔗 Tue, 16 Sep 2008 — @zarfire at Sydney Kingsford Smith International Airport, Australia
It was a cold windy rainy day in the early 70's
I had never seen a Jumbo land but it was clear he was landing LONG!
So long he ran off end of runway and nearly got in a fight with airport fuel lines!
I think USA pilot was given a ticket home.
Anyone have any additional info or an old photo from Sydney herald.
PS now live in the land of Boeing namely Seattle.
First 747 to land at SYD
