It's nice to see an A340 having a daylight departure.

[@sivideoaviation]

Yeah, isn't it.

[@mikes8928]

Excellent capture 😎 It must make them nervous with a delay like that, given it's their entire A340 fleet sitting around waiting!

[@sivideoaviation]

😆

[@Perth_Squad]

[@JacksAviation1]

[@sivideoaviation]

AMSA Challenger

[@Perthplanespot]

[@Talkless142]

It’s crazy SA still using A340s

[@sivideoaviation]

They own them and they do the job.

[@sandilesangoni8172]

It arrives safely here in South Africa

[@khumoaviator4060]

ZS-SXD could potentially be available as a backup A343 to this one provided its the only A/C in the fleet that can operate Perth route due to ETOPS

[@sivideoaviation]

Interesting. That's the one with the Olympic livery.

[@Planegeekguy]

I was there

[@Planegeekguy]

[@patrickmaclean1524]

[@linhofmann4913]

Such a shame the 600's are gone, they were like pencils

[@sivideoaviation]

Yes, and the enormous engines. 😮

[@AidanAviation]

I saw it at my house.

[@sivideoaviation]

They fly pretty low when they take off.
