Nice variety of shots & A/C.

That Qantas 7378 is on a bit of an angle (12th one down) ! - windy day? ...and what is that lump on the back of Virgin Blue 737? Did you fly Tiger Airways?

Cool pics mate. Great to see all the Australian Airlines. :D
Does Adelaide get much international traffic?

That is like a entertainment thing. It is an aerial type thing that gives passengers live TV etc.

Cheers

Great variety of aircraft there, I can spot a IAI Westwind, 737-7, 737-8, Beech King Air, Bombardier Challenger, Airbus A320, Saab 340, Dornier 228, Fokker 50, and a Pilatus PC-12!

How long was the flight back by the way? Both times I have crossed the Tasman on the A320, they never bothered to drop down the TV's for IFE for the passengers :(

Cool pics - thanks for posting them :thumbup:

As Daniel said, the hump is the aerials and equipment for Live2air, which is live inflight entertainment on Virgin Blue's 737s.
It's by Foxtel and Austar, which are the Australian equivalent of Sky.
