I would imagine it is the oldest six EBA to EBF.

The RAAF might want to pickup some cheap a/c.

I find it very hard to believe that any of the QF A330’s are approaching 33k cycles, also they were MSN’s in the early 5xx’s, CX/KA are still/were pre C19 flying double digit MSN builds A333’s, which are 1992/93 birds....the lowest MSN -EBC was a late 2002 build. They’ve hardly had hard lives either with extended layovers in SIN/AKL when they were with JQ and in recent years the domestic A332’s have spent weekends ‘sitting out’.

The first A330’s are a similar age to the 744ER’s which is often forgotten.

It was reported a couple of weeks ago that the RAAF may have been interested in another two A3302s for tanker conversion. Any news?
