Hi Willie thanks for that info i will be at Sydney's kingsford smith airport waiting for these big PAA ladies when they come through. Yes I can remember the flight of N741PA a Pan Am 747-121 jet landing back in 1970 when the airport opened Clipper Kit Karson she was huge back then the Jumbo was famous for such a big aircraft. I have photo's of her with N736PA on a early morning visit from LAX flights Clipper Victor Magnificent these jets. We will be more then happy to see the PAN AM meuseam here in down under it will attract alot of tourist and attention. I wonder what Qantas would think of this. Thank you
