Hi -Thanks for posting this update as I have been following the ins & outs of Sydney's "New Airport" since the late 1990s when Local & Federal Politicians started to seriously talk about the reality that Kingsford-Smith was no longer fit for purpose (Iam talking about the late 1990s)...The sad fact that Western Sydney isn't going to be operational until Mid-Late 2026 is an excellent reflection that this nation is not being governed by rational, pragmatic and forward thinking "homosapiens"...In a more rational world this thing would have been approved, designed & build in less than a decade...Iam also very happy to see that a railway terminal was integrated into the design from the beginning instead of being an "after thought"...👍
Well designed to service for more then 100 years into the future. I only hope the future generations appreciate this magnificent undertaking and all the workers who are and have endured the extreme weather conditions as well. Thank you and all the other drone pilots that have kept us glued to our seats from the start. The competition between drone pilots has in itself given us better then expected results and made you pilots so very professional now. Well done and thank you again.
From what I can work out the station is positioned there for future expansion. The second terminal id meant to be positioned on the other side with the station between the two.
It made a few more appearances and close calls with the drone....not the best situation to be in. Didn't really want to be the first one to have a have a bird strike at the new airport
Great job on the video.............The scope of the project really comes through. Fantastic addition to Sydney and long overdue
Many thanks!
This has to be one of the best video updates of the airport yet,.. cheers 😊
@@tregeariansteve-o9685 thanks for your kind words, have a great day 👌

Great perspective, thank you!
Glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for the great comment @bjbloger
Is there a railway to the basement of the airport or is going to be another Tullamarine cock up?

there is a sydney metro line being built concurrently, and is supposed to open at the same time as the airport and M12 as i understand it
Not many gates with jet bridges.
Nice bit of director’s cameo by the crow

Only one runway?
For the time being yes, a second in parallel is planed in the future.
The airport looks finished but there are still 3 more years to go
Looks 2/3rds finished
