As previously reported on Paine Field Blog, ZNN is due into the paint hanger on 30th May.

That date with the paint hanger has now been updated by Matt Cawby to 29th May ... see VH-ZNN on 26 May

VH-ZNA is repositioning PUS-SYD following repaint as QF6020, ETA 0541 on June 1st. She spent a total of 12 days in PUS.

VH-ZND should be ferried to PUS for repainting shortly after, currently she is operating as QF8 DFW-SYD.

Are they only repainting the wings or the whole aircraft while in PUS?

[C Patters]

Am pretty sure its only the wings

[Michael Mak]

ZND will be ferry to PUS for repainting this morning at 1130 as QF6019: https://flightaware.com/live/flight/...130Z/YSSY/RKPK

This would be VH-ZND. If you look at the previous flight, it operated QF8.

VH-ZNA is on its way to JNB as QF63 having arrived last night from PUS.

[James Smith]

ZND should be back from PUS by 14/6/23 to be in the B789 fleet and maybe even operate SYD-AKL-JFK on 14/6/23 with shiny repainted wings minus gaffer tape.

Are all these repaints "warranty jobs" or is QF getting hit for the costs ?
