Notes: Almost every news outlet around the World filmed The Beatles arrival in Australia at Sydney`s Mascot Airport.
They arrived during a torrential rain storm but were still expected to get on the back of a flat-bed truck and do a circuit of the airport for the thousands of fans whom most of had been there all night.
Needless to say the boys got soaked and their new suits, they had purchased in Hong Kong, got ruined.
Local TV news cameras from "ATN Channel 7" were at the airport.
Their archival footage is currently held by Getty Images who have two files of their arrival totaling 2:39.
