Qantas Fleet

[ReLoad]

Send an email off and see what happens

1. You are P1 so that may help
2. QF has cut back on the compensation lately, as have most companies

See what happens!

I got an old F seat, so no complaints from me at all, but just curious as to if it comes into play, I'm wondering if it factors into the equation of how easy/decision point in swapping out aircraft.

With OJC heading to VCV yesterday the 744 fleet is down to 8 aircraft.

Speaking of the 744's, has AVV maintenance base closed yet?

, not looking forwards to the day when a QF 747 does it's last rev flight... I think I might make sure I'm on that flight...

I won't miss being dished up old F on a 744 in place of a 388, although with few spares, it'll likely mean a downgrade to J in the future

OJC wasn't an aircraft with F class. But I get your point - there are only 3 B744 left with F.

VH-OEF to be precise, in for a major since middle of Feb.

I take it that means maintenance at AVV has't shut up shop yet?

Its not the end of March yet?

 

[TomVexille]

I wasn't aware of the actual timeline. So they shut down at the end of the month then?

Yes, end of March it is.

 

[TomVexille]

Yes, end of March it is.

Thanks.​...

I wonder what they will do with the 300, time for re manufacture into cans?

I was wondering the same.

There's still a 744 there as of this morning.

Some year4s ago there was a suggestion floating around it may be put into the bay as a dive site ...

Not sure "floating"and "dive site" should be used in the same sentence.

 

[docjames]

Maybe firefighting training?

I only recently spotted the news that UA will run their new 789's MEL-LAX direct. So the airline that was once the airline of last resort will be running the new equipment. If VA were to ever join *A then QF would be well and truly done for out of MEL.

Really? QF do run their 388's direct to LAX so why the doomsday prediction based on the 789?
