QF to get a 744ERF
Qantas have announced they will lease a freighter with delivery towards the end of the year to replace the contracted ops.

They will still be leasing 2 Atlas 74F's. This will replace one of the 3 they currently lease.
Also good to here it will be in a new Qantas Freight colour scheme with a Kangaroo on the tail (finally!!!) |

Where did you read it will have the kangaroo on the tail?
Just for my info. Thanks Todd.

Sounds like N797BA (l/n 1416/MSN 37303) could be the aircraft as it is a 'near new' bird having been in storage since manufacturing / test flights and parked at Pinal Airpark since 11/11/2009. It is one of the last 747-400's built.
I believe a few of Jade Cargo Internationals 747-400ERF's are still in storage since they ceased operations in 2011. |

It's hinted in the linked media release too, says it will display the Qantas Freight branding & be opb Express Freighters Australia. No specific mention of the 'roo but I guess the inference is there that it'll look much like VH-EFR

The article says "branded in the distinctive new Qantas freight livery". I thought that was the one with the solid red tail with no kangaroo unless the livery has recently changed?

is the 744ERF just a 744F with increased max zero fuel weight and take off weight option?
If so, how is this achieved? More powerful engines? |

Does anyone know what the Qantas Freight Saab 340 is mentioned at the bottom of the media release?
