OLYMPIC LIVERY - South African Airways A340 (ZS-SXD) returns to Perth Airport on December 9, 2024.

Wonderful Video 👍

[@LeftIsBest001]

I'm so glad the A340 is still being used, they're a fantastic looking, safe, reliable aircraft. I won't fly across the Pacific or Atlantic unless it's on a four engined aircraft.

[@SuperEdge67]

Hundreds and hundreds of aircraft cross the Atlantic and Pacific every day……..95% of them twin engined.

I was waiting for this video 🎉🎉🎉

[@sivideoaviation]

I worked overtime last night to get it out today 😜

[@jacoct35]

@sivideoaviation it was awesome seeing both Zs-sxd and zs-sxf in the air, one coming and one going.

[@PLANEMANIA747]

Beautiful capturing ❤

[@V8CHRGD]

Cool livery and good to see 2 now in service. Wish they kept the -600.

[@sivideoaviation]

There are still some in Johannesburg.

[@LieslArmstrong]

I was wondering if you were filming us a few moments just before touch down and you did ❤❤❤❤

[@sivideoaviation]

I was always going to be there for this one. 😜

[@wianmostert8616]

Outstanding video bro 🙏🏻 can you maybe consider an all SAA video ?

[@sivideoaviation]

Good idea

[@trainandbus123Perth]

Finally.

[@MrAvgeek321]

Yep it definitely felt like 2019 again

[@germanavia]

I have been watching SAA takeoff at night via the radar

[@RMurray2207]

Is this a different a340 300 or is it the same from earlier in the year.

[@sivideoaviation]

It's a different one. SAA are now flying ZS-SXF and ZS-SXD.

[@RMurray2207]

Let's go

[@sivideoaviation]

Four times a week now: Monday, Wednesday, Friday, Sunday

[@RMurray2207]

Nice

[@LeftIsBest001]

They don't retract the slats and flaps before shutting down? 🤔

[@sivideoaviation]

I noticed that yesterday.

[@BravoLimaVictor]

If the OAT is above 30° the procedure is to leave the flaps at 1
