A very quick search of the Qantas website will tell you it’s OEF

With OEF retiring tomorrow, just wondering whether anyone has any idea of the order that the remaining ERs will be retired in? I wonder which one will be the last QF 747 in service? That will always be a special aircraft, but we are fast approaching the end of the QF 747 days. Very sad 😔

I believe that they are not being scrapped and have been purchased by a freight company for conversion to freighters. How true that is I do not know.
