The Aviation Association of Western Australia Inc (AAWA) and Perth Airport arranged an airside visit for nearly 30 AAWA members (less than half of AAWA’s total members) at Perth Airport on 30 July 2018.
The visit was arranged to coincide with the return of Qantas’ Boeing 747s to Perth, where it was temporarily operating domestic flights between Sydney and Perth, due to a need to train more Boeing 737 pilots.
