What a capture! 2 points of observation: 1. You captured the landing lights deploying from the sides of the aircraft and 2. A flaps 5 take-off. Normally, a flaps 15 is used but we all suspect this was an empty aircraft.

Still a great video. Timeless

I miss the early morning cargo flights.

@@Helicopterpilot16 I'm in SYD and luckily we have a couple of Purple Tail arrivals early Tuesday mornings so good opportunity for a couple of spots before work (or back to bed).

Nice video. I always like seeing a trijet.
Out of curiosity, why does the vertical stabilizer look like it was made to accommodate a far larger control surface than what is actually installed?
