Some pics from Brisbane as World leaders and their stage crew arrive en masse...

QUOTE

Itâ€™s the talk of the G20 so far - which world leader has the biggest jet? The worldâ€™s most powerful people travel the globe in style. Some with a little more room to stretch their legs than others. We take a look at the aircraft landing in Brisbane for the world forum this weekend[/quote]

Interest set of photos, South African 727 with the upgraded engines, funny, I think I have seen that aircraft on the Christchurch's Op Deep Freeze, It dose look more like a private jet "a rental" more than a countries staff car.

Yeah this is causing real headaches for regular operators. I don't know why they didn't use Williamstown.

I see some Canadian journos whinged about the plane they flew here in because "It's so old it's still got ash-trays".

I'd make the pr#cks find their own way.

...how about bringing the Russian Navy, then?

QUOTE

RUSSIA has for the first time explained the presence of a fleet of warships off north-eastern Australia, saying that the ships are testing their range capability, in case they have to do climate change research in the Antarctic.
The Russian embassy also said the fleet could, if necessary, provide security for Russian President Vladimir Putin, who arrives in Brisbane for the G20 tonight.[/quote]
