The Jetconnect 737s have had Spirit of Australia titles since the livery was updated. Aside from the registration and the tiny NZ flag, they are identical to mainline 737s. And with reference to your Link argument, the freighters say 'Freight'.

You may wish to revisited your use of , and your argument in general.

Default Qf and 777s

Dale, I agree with you wholeheartedly.

Withstanding the 777-300er which I must add makes up a large portion and large profit of the worlds leading airlines anz,sia, ek, cx, ey,qr etc even the 200lr or 200er couldve served well on Asian routes Vs the 330. Qf with the ageing 767 now on intl routes has no choice with a330s gone to jq and 744s I'n short demand (some retired and more on their way).. The 777 seemed like the perfect I'n between for the 767 and 747 and I think it's gonna hurt Qf I'n the meantime waiting for what seems like an eternal wait for their 787s.

On the topic of capacity , not sure of the loads on us a380 flights or LHR etc but I'm guessing quite high . 777 whilst not quite up there, couldve easily supplemented the a380 introduction and be I'n line with Qfs game changer policy of a reduction I'n F, large business /premium product and revised y.
