Inside Sydney Airport on SBS – In this ten-part series for SBS, our team takes viewers behind the scenes at one of the busiest airports in the Southern Hemisphere, Sydney Kingsford Smith Airport.
Positioned on Botany Bay, Sydney Airport is the gateway to the Pacific Ocean with up to 180,000 people entering the airport precinct every day. Volatile weather patterns, security breaches, technical issues and the human element place pressure on keeping the 900 flights safely on schedule.
Series One, Episode Nine: Maintenance
Sydney Airport is a city within a city, with thousands of crew keeping operations flowing.
The work never slows, from changing a wind sock, painting a runway at midnight, repairing a stuck airbridge before the plane arrives, saving a maintenance worker from a stuck elevator, or putting out a potentially catastrophic fire that traps hundreds of passengers on a recently arrived flight.
