Remarks: When we were taxing to the Terminal (after landing from CPT) I was surprised to see this Virgin Atlantic Airbus A340-600 (G-VBUG) parked on taxiway J2. You can clearly see people giving it a good wash. They also do this with their Boeing 747-400's when they fly here (from LHR) and with a turn around time of just over 12 hours, they might as well. Lots of old birds can be seen parked behind the VS including a Nationwide B737-200/Adv, a Starts Away DC-9(F)/DC-8(F), and at the end a DC-3 !
Remarks: Kulula's colourful 'Zippy Plane' is seen turning onto the ramp. This daily MN flight operates from Durban (DUR/FADN) to Cape Town (CPT/FACT) via Port Elizabeth (and vice versa), taking a total of 6 hours 40 minutes.
