It would of been good to see the A330's in Virgin Blue's current livery.

Official word is some unspecified time in May, but you really have to wonder if they won't deploy the aircraft earlier. It only took V Aus a few weeks to get the 777 in commercial service, and that was a new type for the Aus registry. A330, not so. With the first A330 due to arrive early next month, it will have twice as much pre-service time as the 777.

Will all Cabin Crew be required to undergo training to be endorsed on the A332, or will they only have the option open to those who wish to?

Will the DJ training centres need to receive a full Airbus mock up, or just doors?

Word around the traps is that the A332 crew will do a few training flights on the aircraft like they did with V'z 773's when they first came on line!

1st arrival is now on the ground at Tullamarine parked at the JHAS hangars. Might be able to get some shots through the fence on Operations Rd.
