I remember as a young kid back in the early 1980's there used to be viewing terraces at the domestic terminal. The sounds and smells is what started my love of aviation
qantas had A300's for a few years due to the qantas merger with TAA/Australian airlines (They also got their 737-300's and 400's from the merger too) in 1993, then they got rid of the A300's.
It looks as if there were issues with the front wheel, for example no green light or so. The Qantas A300's were former Australian Airlines (TAA) A300's.

Thanks for uploading this video capturing the history of aircraft operations at Sydney, I liked, subbed and added to my favourites! It is such a shame that so many of these aircraft don't fly to Sydney anymore and airlines like Ansett don't exist anymore.
Fantastic vide, I've finally had time to watch it after being in my watch later list when you first uploaded it ;) So many 747's in that video sadly that isn't the same that much in Sydney. Liked and favourited!
There is a surprising absence of McDonnell Douglas aircraft at this airport, considering the year (circa. 1997) No DC-8, DC-9, DC-10, MD-11 or any MD-80 series.
Not many passengers airlines flew those aircraft types into SYD! Freight companies would often, I know DHL & FedEx flew both dc10 & MD11's frequently into Sydney
I find it interesting that the Qantas livery, which remains the same today, was far and away more striking then than every other airline. In fact some of the other airlines looked like suburban bus company liveries, horrible. That Qantas livery is still influencing many airlines (eg: American Airlines' recent update) with it's simplicity and style.
Thank you very much for uploading this brings back so many memories. With your permission can I please use the Video of an Air New Zealand 747-200 landing and taking off and credit you for the video?
What an “unusual” landing at about 1’45” where the QANTAS pilot appears to deliberately prolong lowering the front gear, at one point pitching up towards a tail strike... looks like pure play rather than focus on a company endorsed roll out procedure?
Canada 3000 757 at Sydney @ 8m30sec . Its in either 1997 or 98. thats the only two years they flew the 757 into Sydney from Vancouver via Honolulu and Fiji. From 1999 the used the A330 and they went bankrupt in 2000.
Aviation Modelling Redefined i dont know exactly...i gave this video from my friend. my quess is before 1998 becouase qantas get away A300 about 05. Nov 1998
Duen969 Comment current 2021 all old school since 1960's in my line... priceless in your in the modern age 1980's feel all good. Love celery stick Cathay Pacific colours VHS have been there 1980's feel too modern at the time love the old jets sad to say Ansett now gone the old industry and so many 747's gone. Good times. Yes B747 so common in your video but gone in 2021 not to return. I always wonder ultimate new generation 2021 flyers of what they will never experience purchasing a flight ticket in person in an Airline office in person and get a hand written carbon ticket and pay in cash. The airline industry has changed since 1960's into 2021. Ansett 727.

Legend has it that Qantas A300 still hasn’t touched its nose wheel down yet. Now living in wheelie heaven.
Thanks for the memories, back in the days SYD was the 747 magnet!
+Daniel Kong You are welcome
Recorded between 1997 and 1998: The Sydney 2000 livery on the Ansett 744 could be seen 1997-1999, Qantas retired the A300 in 1998.
And the BA 'Chatham Dockyard scheme/'world tails' livery on the 744, introduced in 1997.

I wish I has worked for any Airlines back then.
Looking back at the good old days

Tolle Aufnahmen und schöne Erinnerungen an viele nicht mehr aktiv Flugzeugen und Airlines ✈️✈️✈️✈️👍👍👍👍
Only just came across this old gold.
Some beautiful memories here, with some awesome shots down 16R 👌
Absolutely phenomenal! Thank you for sharing such a great compilation of wonderful and diverse times at Sydney.
FlightObserver Thank you for nice comment.
That Qantas A300 was do a wheelie like a motorbike do Sydney International Airports Runway .
It was a 767. Qantas never flew any A300s.
+TeamGForce75
They actually flew 4 A300s according to Planespotters.net
It's an A300 doing the Wheelie . not a 767 .
+Jo Tyers I just checked and indeed you are correct. Apologies.

Dat Plane Guy Thank you,its good you enjoyed :)

Is this all your work? Was pretty good coverage for it's era.
no it isnt, its from my friend
I still don't understand what it is with planes that fascinates me, but your video... Wow! I enjoyed watching it immensely! Thanks for posting it!
+Apocalypse Twotwotwoone thank you very much for your nice comment
What was wrong with Qantas A300 doing a wheely
Was thinking the same thing when will the pilot lower the front wheel.
rear heavy??
Probably just a bet between Captain and Co Pilot..
@@michaelandrew4812 I waited and waited and waited. Did you notice reverse thrust wasn't engaged?
Bro why did that Qantas not put his front wheel down bro that was like a world record bro holy sh

wow miss the 747s
I miss Ansett. I think my uncle may have gone to an auction when their assets, art etc were liquidated.
Looks like about 1998, since there's a Qantas A300 at 33:00, just before they were retired.
Thanks for this video its Brilliant
Tim Gorman You are Welcome :)
Wonderful compilation and I'm only 6 mins in. Will definitely be revisiting this link to see the rest :)

I was working at ADL when Sept 11 happened and Ansett when balls up.
great memories
Thanks for sharing 👍👍👍👍
you are welcome :)
Muito Lindo Velhos tempos Parabéns
Sad i remember flying out of Brisbane in 2002 and seeing a yard full of Anset Australia planes didn't Qantas buy the remaining stock?
Ah before the B777 took over. Good to see all the 747s
+scuderia2000 i like them too

Great Takeoff view At 28:00
Did the A300 ever land?
Canada 3000 757 at Sydney @ 8m30sec . Its in either 1997 or 98. thats the only two years they flew the 757 into Sydney from Vancouver via Honolulu and Fiji. From 1999 the used the A330 and they went bankrupt in 2000.
The A330 would have started second half of 1999 Pete, as we flew to Vancouver and return in June of 99 on the B757. What a trip that was. Cheers John
Good video of those B747s and B767s!
