The airport here at Sydney was very busy with school holiday traffic with long lines and delays
We are doing some plane spotting before the flight takes off
Here is my plane arriving registration VH-VGH, a 14 year old Airbus A320-232
We are at the boarding gate waiting to get on the plane
Got a seat on the left hand side of the plane towards the front with a nice engine view of the A320

Leaving the plane via the tarmac
Thanks for sharing this series and welcome to the site. This A320ceo experience is looking a lot more LCC than the factory fresh A320neo with charging ports you had on the outbound. Looks like you had Pinnacle seats on this plane, how did the 28-29” seat pitch feel compared to the newer Recaro product?
The seats were uncomfortable for a flight of over 3 hours and thanks for watching
