When will the 747-300's retire?

Hi Everyone,

I'm curious as to when QF will retire the 743's they are using? I fly SYD-PER on a regular basis and they seem to be a bit long in the tooth.

The last time I flew on a 743 (2 weeks ago) the cabin ceiling started leaking water onto all the passengers which continued for about 2 hours. 3 weeks before that my seat (along with others) had broken headrests and the IFE system wasn't functioning.

The list goes on and on for the last 12 months
