Passengers on the left will see the winding Macquarie River and the Dubbo city center as the aircraft climbs away from the regional hub.
The left side typically provides the most iconic views of Sydney Harbour, the Northern Beaches, and the Hawkesbury River during the standard approach into Kingsford Smith Airport.
The left side provides a superior viewing experience as it faces south, away from the harsh Australian sun, offering better lighting for the transition from the green Orana region to the deep reds of the outback and the spectacular Menindee Lakes.
