QANTAS Fleet and Operations

[Stirling D]

Onwards to BNE as QF6215 tomorrow, 0905L dep, 0950L arr.

[Greg Hyde]

Have they made for it yet ?

[Brenden S]

YQW requires a C check on the 5th December, so no more commercial flying. The engines will be removed in BNE and then donated to AA.

[Greg Hyde]

I expected that it would have its engines removed and sent onto Delta.

[Ayden H]

I think he means the aircraft. I don't think the engines are going to Delta as YQW wasn't sold to them like the rest.

[Brenden S]

The airframe is being donated to AA, Engines are either going to Delta or Hawaiian

VH-NXQ was deleted from the VH-Reg on 26/11/24

YQW which should be renamed Dame Nellie Melba or John Farnham (for the number of flights after final was announced) is scheduled to ferry to Brisbane (where are those nay-sayers now) as QJE6215, departing CBR at 11:25AM AEDT with an ETA BNE at 11:46AM AEST for probably the last B717 flight in Australia

YQW is operating QF6216 CBR-SYD, departing at 1200L

The names fit, YQW is now scheduled to do QJE1503, Sydney to Hobart.
