Delayed on departure from CGK with VH-REX now due to arrive in BNE at 3:03 this morning and VH-PAG at 3:18 this morning.

Now due from CGK at 17:45 and 18:00 into BNE

Funny how they are keeping them both 15 minutes apart even each time changes are made to the flight time.

Out of curiosity what have Rex done with the interiors of the 737-800's ie seat headrest colors?

Thank you.

Finally, VH-REX is airborne from CGK and estimated to arrive in BNE at 18:45 local, 19:45 SYD time. VH-PAG to follow 15 minutes behind.

VH-PAG is now airborne from CGK and by my estimate about 25 minutes behind REX. PAG is estimated to arrive in BNE at 19:10 local time, 20:10 SYD time.

Both REX B738s have arrived in BNE with VH-REX touching down at 19:17 local and VH-PAG at 19:37, 20 minutes behind.

Interestingly on the flight from CGK, VH-REX descended from 41,000 to 15,000 in just over 10 minutes while over the Northern Territory, stayed at that altitude for nearly 4 minutes and then climbed back to 41,000. The speed reduced while at 15,000 to a lowest of 310 knots. Pretty strange. Could the crew have been performing an approved practise depressurisation event?

Steve, the photos in the above link from Executive Traveller will give you a look at the REX business class seats, with the economy seats in the background.

How many B738's do they need to start jet ops ?
