Former QF and google 767-238ER 2-TSSA arrived into Perth on the weekend. I believe since her sale a few years back she is based in SZB doing work with the oil industry with a 42 passenger interior featuring full flat sleeping for 21 passengers & 2 staterooms of identical footprints, each with its own lavatory with shower. Formerly VH-EAQ when she left the fleet almost 20 years ago.

Looks like a C17 is doing an evac, enroute at the moment. A400Ms from 61e Escadre de Transport (61st Transport Squadron) are also involved at Noumea (landing at Tonga WLS Walis Island) but not seen here.
