G'day all. What is the rego of QF6 landing in SYD tomorrow (17/5/09) morning? Understand it might be OEJ. Oso did OEB operate QF6 into SYD on Fri morning (15/5/09)? Thank you for your kind help.

VH-OEB QF0006 15/05/2009 04:47 Qantas B747-48E Frankfurt-Singapore-Sydney

QF5 yesterday was OJJ so that should be the return aircraft tomorrow.

VH-OJJ QF0005 15/05/2009 16:22 Qantas B747-438 Sydney-Singapore-Frankfurt

Although this ACARS transmission for last nights departure from Frankfurt is a little confusing, a B763, maybe a corrupt transmission.

ACARS mode: 2 Aircraft reg: VH-OGC [Boeing B763]

That is because Air Niugini is damp leasing Qantas 767s at the moment. VH-OGC operated PX006 BNE-POM however the prefix is not changeable in ACARS so it comes up as QF006.

Thanks Anthony, mystery solved.

OEJ definitely operated QF5 SIN-FRA on Thursday 14th May.

That means it should operate FRA-SIN-SYD on Friday 15th and arrive back into Sydney at approx 5am Sunday 17th.

Cheers

Thank you
