No name. Send complaint letters to A Joyce.

Sigh.

However, QF have apparently confirmed (As per this and other forums) that they will be repainting another aircraft into Aboriginal c/s sometime this year, so I suppose not all is lost.

So maybe there is hope after all?

With all the 744's they've 'lost' in recent years they couldn't find a name to put on OEJ? Or is that something that'll go on once it lands in Sydney? Very strange. Though, in saying that, doesn't 767 OGO also go around nameless?

While I'm sure OEJ is a great example of the new livery in all its splendour, it's such a shame to lose the Wunala paintjob.

Hoping the new indigenous livery is something worth waiting for.

I think VH-OGO is called Unity.

I think you will find it WAS called Unity. If I recall there were several planes with names like this when Qantas and Australian merged, but those names have long since disappeared.

Great photo Chris given the conditions.......doesn't look like todays departure to DFW will be much better weatherwise.

Thanks for the replies, OGO may be called 'Unity' but I'm pretty sure she's not wearing it on the fuselage.

According to what I've been reading on the forums, some aircraft are named once they reach Australia, so OEJ's name might be on her when she departs for DFW this afternoon. Will anyone be there to see her off?

Regarding Wunala Dreaming, now that she's gone, I thought I'd put together a bit of a tribute video of her.

Not sure if there's any embed tags for YouTube videos, so please follow the link below

Cheers,
