  1. I saw this,I was in the qantas club waiting for my flight out of Perth and saw 4 long smokey trails from something turning onto finals. And in she chugged - quite a lot of pitch up/down movements at the threshold - reminded me of how a B52 lands - but great to see, makes a change from boring 737 and 767s..
