RFF TAR 18 Pick-em Game
Prophet:
If the train station is part of the airport then the answer to #16 is Gary and Mallory. They do not technically leave the airport until the subway pulls out. You can see this at 16:01 in the online version.
Prophet:
The answer to #17 is complicated. They show some of the teams on the second flight to land making the train but Ron and Chris, Jet and Cord and Mel and Mike missing it. Then it cuts to the other three doing the RB. It doesn't show R/C J/C or M/M again until they are boarding the ferry. Therefore we don't know the last team to leave the airport. The last team to be shown there though is Jet and Cord at 17:47 (online). After that point we don't see the airport again so it would have to be them.

I can answer that. The subway TRAIN! terminal is directly connected to the airport. The station is immediately underneath it and is called Sydney International Airport. However, once you leave the station, you are no longer considered to be in the airport. The only time I could say for certain that the train has left the airport station (using the footage we see) is when the train is arriving at Circular Quay and you can see daylight out the window. The only reason we know its outside the airport is because the airport train station is clearly underground.
Even though we know the train is moving while Mallory is talking to Jen, and I'm confident that this happened well outside the airport train station, I can't remember for certain, and the footage in no way backs up that claim.

I was hoping that the terminal was a separate entity connected. I will do some personal research to verify.
Prophet:
I don't see why we have to wait until they reach the Quay. While Mal is being shown the train is moving as you can see by looking out the window. This means they have left the actual airport to me.
If the train station is not the airport the answer is still Gary and Mallory shown at about 15:52.
If you must wait until the shot of the bridge is shown outside the train window then the answer is Kisha and Jen at 16:35.
(This is all about question 16)
georgiapeach:
I travel through a lot of airports with attached train stations. Whether the train station is attached or underneath or on top of the airport, once I am in the environs of the train station...I am in the "train station" and out of the airport.
For our purposes, I would consider any train station shots or inside train cars as totally separate from the airport.
At some point we have to rely on the intention of the question....right?
