Evening

Can anyone confirm what ramp the SJ Eagles are parked on?

Cheers

I believe they are all parked on Charlie (Visitor) Ramp, or what can now be seen of it from the Brandon Road given all the recent redevelopment work. Seeing all of them is challenging, reading them all off, nigh on impossible.

Yes I also think the SJ Eagles are on Charlie from what I hear on the radio ' taxi from Charlie to 24 via Sierra'

Thanks for the replies.

I visited last week, and they are patked well left of the LN Eagles when looking from the hill.

I didnt see any from walking the Brandon road, so i agree almost impossible to see them all.
