QF 744 retirement. Where is it at?

[Sarah C]

My effort is pretty basic compared to what Kurt produced.

Ah Sarah.... Don't sell yourself short. They are fantastic shots too!

Thanks for posting

Cheers

Great shots both Sarah and Kurt, thanks I love that the 'roo on the tail isn't entirely invisible, on either side! Curious though what the layover in LAX is all about, and why not just fly it straight into VCV, especially curious as OJQ is stated as doing the same later this month?

Cheers

Rowan,

OJH is not heading to VCV, she's going to MZJ.

I would assume the time in LA is for crew rest hours.

OJH is leased so this is reason for her Mojave home. Owned aircraft usually go to Victorville.
