- description: A Qantas A380 (VH-OQJ) and an Emirates A380 (A6-EDY) take off at Sydney Airport together for the flyover in the City. This was to mark the start of the Qantas and Emirates Alliance. Unfortunately I didn't get the chance to see the actual formation over the Sydney Harbour Bridge as they were running late and ended up taking off at around 9:50am. Here is the full report. QANTAS AND EMIRATES DUAL A380 FLY OVER Date: Sunday 31 March 2013 Time: 9:20 -- 10:50am Location: Sydney Opera House & Harbour Bridge Photo Opportunity: Flight Plan: Aircraft will take off from Sydney International at 9:20am. Both aircraft will fly north to Longreef, then south and slightly out to sea, where they will turn and come into Sydney Harbour over Watson's Bay, then position to the north side of the Harbour, where they will pass the Sydney Opera House and fly over the Sydney Harbour Bridge at 10.30am. They will then fly as far as the Gladesville Bridge, turn around and come back in the same formation. The Qantas plane will lead at a height of 1500ft with the Emirates aircraft to the right and higher.
