Default VH-OJA to ALBION PARK - Discussion and Photo Thread

Sunday 8th March

Qantas will retire the VH-OJA - which flew non-stop from London to Sydney in 1989 - after almost 25 years of service and will gift it to the Historical Aviation Restoration Society (HARS) to preserve its place in aviation history.

Aircraft landing: 7.50am
Press conference: 8.30am

Illawarra Regional Airport (Albion Park, Rail, NSW)

Captain Greg Matthews, Senior Training Captain, 747
Captain Bob De La Hunty, President & Chief Pilot, HARS
Captain David Massy-Greene (the now retired Qantas Captain who operated the historic flight from London to Sydney in 1989)

The delivery schedule and timing is weather dependent and Albion Park Airport perimeter roads will be subject to closures on the day.
