Qantaslink Q400s with ADS-B

[Max C]

LQL and LQM have the enhanced nav package fitted, I believe it came fitted from delivery.

The only ones without it are QOR and LQH.

Another Q400 will ferry BNE-TMW on Sunday, the Q400 that was supposed to ferry to BNE today will now arrive tomorrow afternoon.

As always, subject to change.

Next topic will be when do they start to repaint the Q400's given QOA-QOF are looking quite tired these days.

Ah...weird that QOR is the only one to go through the maintenance and not get the enhamced NAV!

As for the repaints....I hope soon....as well as QOI...not only do the stickers on that look horrendous but the actual paint is looking very worn as well.

[Max C]

LQH it is heading to TMW today.

[Max C]

LQH due back to BNE tonight, it does not have ADS-B fitted.

TQE will head to TMW tonight.

There is a plan to install ADS-B in the 300's prior to 2017 but the timings aren't known.

[Max C]

QOY should exit the hangar shortly with ADS-B.

[Max C]

SBB is the next Q300 due into maintenance (03 Jan)

Not sure on the ADS-B timeframe but we should have a better idea after TQE exits.

[Max C]

TQZ (Q300) will exit maintenance shortly with ADS-B fitted.

[Zac M]

Came back into service today as QF2007 TMW-SYD, unsure if it was planned like that or not as VH-TQH operated QF2006 and that itself only exited the TMW hanger on the 23rd.

Im assuming QOA should be due for another check in the coming months, as should LQL and M?

[Max C]

TQH now has ADS-B fitted.

SBV enters maintenance in TMW today.

Maybe the thread can be re-named "QantasLink Dash 8's with ADS-B"

[Steve S... 2]

Does anyone have a list of all QF Dash8's with ADSB fitted (Dh8-200/300/400) at all please?

Just thought I'd ask.

Regards.
