Love it!

I thought SA had switched to all -600's into PER now?

I wish the springbok would return to Sydney!

@airtink

SAA rotates the A343 and A346 where demand dictates.

As a general rule they send the A343s on weekends and the A346s during teh week:)

I see this was taken recently, as the black fence is in view :(

@numloxx

Yeah, I hate that new fence with a passion!

could this plane possibly be ZS-SXA?

[chrisklein21]

@ansettaddict123 not true. they use all A340 variants. mainly -200 and -600 but the -300 comes in a lot lately as well especially ex-Iberia ZS-SXG and SXH. i haven't seen the -600 in Perth for at least 3 months now but maybe it came in on the days i wasn't working. the -200 are ex-Lufthansa and as far as i know will be slowly faced out during 2011
