I'm not the 747's biggest fan (don't dislike them either) but I have to admit she looked pretty stunning on tele!!

I think Ch7 Sunrise program had the better coverage compared to the Today show who decided to have picture in picture during the News

I'm sure the Sunrise Reporter thought it was going to land in front of the Qantas Hangar.

If anyone was out there this morning that may have got some photos of OJU,if you could post that would be great
It was nice to hear the media people not only thanking Qantas,but also acknowledging Capt Mike Coventry and his crew for their efforts in bringing our athletes home.
It is a job that I'm sure many QF crew would have been puting their hand up for.

Cheers
Jim

Can anyone confirm if the Kangaroo logos on OJU's engine nacelles also had the boxing gloves?
Thanks
Tony

In response to Tony, no boxing gloves on the engines
