VH-RQP is "scheduled" to return around 27/11/2024.

Based on VH-Rex's arrival, don't bet the house on it.

Wonder if that will head to Flying Colours in Townsville? Once it departs that is.

From what I heard it was heading to MEL, so Wagga might get a 2nd job

There's a VA 737 in the MH hangar at KLIA, anyone know which a/c it is? Had a look at the KLIA ground list but couldn't find anything.

Depends when that photo was taken. If at the end of October, it would most likely be VUL. If mid October it would be VOO.

It was taken November 29 when neither of those two were in KL…I’m wondering if VA have picked up another B73H, if you look closely it has the “Virgin” on the winglets which only the N series’s B73Gs have, none of these were in KL at the time of the picture, I would suggest possibly 9V-MGD might be coming to VA? It is currently at KL.

I noticed that too but haven’t heard anything about any other aircraft entering the fleet apart from REX/RQP/737-8s. Could possibly be a repaint? If I have time tomorrow I’ll check where the whole fleet is.

There are two more ex-Silk -8SAs due in Feb to be in service by Easter. Could be running early.

VH-REX is still in Wagga (Paintshop)

VH-RQP could be waiting for her to finish before ferrying.

Are the repaints taking up their previous names ?
