Default VH-OEB new QF livery?

Hi Folks,

-OEB at been at SIAEC in Singapore for a few weeks now, anyone know when it's due back in Oz? I've heard from many credible sources this will be the first QF B744 in the new livery.

I also presume with the time it's been away that it's undergoing a C or D check at the same time.

Anyone know more?

cheers

Tom/WA

It was due to be finished in SIN on 27/03/08 but it arrived 2 days later than originally scheduled for the C check so it should be back in the next few days if they are on track.

As to when and where it comes back I don't have any info.
