Default Embraer 170s VH-ZHA & - ZHB

Skyliner reported early last week that both VH-ZHA and -ZHB had been sold to Trip Linhas Aereas, Brazil.

However, on Sunday afternoon (22/5), I read on Skyliner that both VH-ZHB and -ZHA had been re-registered N747CZ and N746CZ respectively to Compass Airlines, Arizona. It's now late Sunday evening (2337) in Perth and the report about -ZHB has been deleted from Skyliner.

Can anyone please set the record straight ?

Thanks in adavance.

ZHC departed last Friday.

So with 3 E70s remaining, what former E70 sectors have changed aircraft type? For example at 8:30 in the morning, you have the HBA-CBR on the ground at CBR (getting ready to go to either SYD or OOL), the SYD-ABX and SYD-PQQ in the air and the CBR-MEL-MQL-MEL-CBR just taking off from CBR. One of those can't be operated by E70, which one?

I think HBA-CBR is now E190, either that or CBR-MEL has gone fully 737.

Not sure, haven't been out to the airport in a while long enough to tell. Last time I went out there was two flights from Sydney, one a 170 (ZHC last day in service I believe) and the other was a 190.

There is now a daily 737 service from Sydney which then does a CBR-OOL-CBR rotation meaning there is two 737s overnighting in Canberra, one would go out to Melbourne and the other to Sydney or Brisbane.

EDIT: I stand corrected, DJ287 which used to overnight in Canberra now has a return leg to Melbourne so that 737 would go out to Melbourne the next morning. There is also one less flight to Sydney in the morning so I think that makes only three Virgin aircraft overnighting (as opposed to Qantas's 7, four of which are for Sydney) in Canberra.
