Does anyone know when Qantas will remove the "Spirit of the Australian Team" decals off OJU? They don't seem to be relevant anymore given the Olympics finished nearly 2 years ago!!

Given the Commonwealth Games are around the corner, maybe just maybe they would keep it on there until after that?

3 B744s will be retired between now and the end of 2014.

OJA-OJI-OJL might be the ones going?

Read on a Facebook feed today that -OJL performed the flight from Singapore arriving May 16 and is now going through predisposal which should be completed by May 27. The feed stated that they weren't sure if -OJL would then perform a revenue flight to LAX and then go to storage at VCV or fly directly there from SYD. If this is the case it's a bit sad seeing this bird leave. She gave us a wonderful flight home from LHR in Premium Economy and was hoping to have a repeat experience on her when flying to Tokyo later in the year as the seatplan matched this aircraft. Looks like it will probably be -OEB or -OJM.

There is a pattern for the crew that flys LAX VCV. So LAX VCV is still planned at the moment. But that's obviously subject to operational requirements.
Have to wait and see.
