6/7 operable QFA380s with two QF2s… OQG the one not showing as it’s at LHR. View attachment 408308

Pls dont forget 1 is a delayed QF2D because of the earlier medical delay couple of days ago, the other is the normal QF 2 from last night... and that one should depart a few hrs later from Singapore to Sydney arriving tomorrow morning

QF746, this evenings scheduled ADL-SYD has been cancelled, with the operating aircraft B738 VH-VYF now ferrying to AYQ as QF6121, then to form a delayed QF729 AYQ-SYD. It is subbing in for B738 VH-VXD which appears to be grounded at AYQ after operating QF728, possibly with a recurrent fault after earlier diverting to ASP.

As discussed in post #16080, B789 VH-ZNI rushed across from PER to SYD this evening.

It formed QF103, the 2025 hours SYD-HNL airborne at 2115 hours with gate arrival (same day) likely at about 1021 hours, 31 minutes late.

Tuesday 24 September 2024 has seen QF35, the 1200 'high noon' MEL-SIN (A332 VH-EBK) take off at 1258 hours. Arrival at gate should be about 1845, half an hour behind schedule.

VH-ZNC was down to do the QF21 today but the flight was cancelled

As noted above, B789 VH-ZNC that's been inoperable for more than a month flew recently empty from PER across to MEL.

FR24 shows it as rostered to operate QF21, the Tuesday 24 September 1300 hours lunchtime MEL up and across to DFW that was cancelled.

24's QF22 (the 2040 hours DFW-MEL) is displaying as instead likely to depart at 2320 hours. QF8 from DFW to SYD is showing as 'normal': these eastbounds are unbalanced, so FR24 may not have caught up with the change to QF21.

QF's flight status confirms that QF21 and QF22 are cancelled, so FR24 is incorrect re 'the 22'.

Does VH-ZNC need further repairs or maintenance?

Also on Tuesday 24, B789 VH-ZNG on the 1025 hours midmorning CDG down to PER did not take off until 1136 hours. Wednesday 25 arrival looks like 1000 hours, 65 minutes tardy.

A388 VH-OQG as QF2 from LHR to SIN arrived at 1820 hours, 55 minutes behind schedule.
