I've heard the same Chris. Back in late November I heard that OQA was a write off. What I am fairly certain of however, is that Qantas are not taking it back.
If you saw the 60 minutes episode on QF32, which aired early Feb, and assuming it was filmed shortly before airing, you can see that no repairs have been made.
