Leg #2

Flight: QF16
Depart: Los Angeles (KLAX)
Arrive: Brisbane (YBBN)
Equip: B744

Enjoy and don't forget the pictorial evidence and travelogue.

EDIT: Mike Blakely here. I corrected the ICAO code for Birsbane to YBBN. Harold put YBAF, which is the municipal airport in Brisbane. One runway is 4,000 ft, and the other two are grass. Tough to land a 744 there. YBBN is the Brisband international airport.
