It was in Perth the other day.

They are taking turns to park a 737 for 6 days at a time to avoid going through the full storage checks I believe because of over capacity

There is also a brand-new (not entered service) ATR stored in Townsville with the last two on the ATR production line ntu.

There's quite a discussion on Pprune in regards to VARA and deferral of ATR's - http://www.pprune.org/australia-new-...akes-vara.html

There seemed to be a VA B738 parked at CBR all weekend... would that also have been part of the over-capacity issue? It (or another one) was in the QF hangar a couple of mornings last week as well...

It's YIJ, it was (possibly still is ) broken

FVR is one unlucky aircraft.

Severe tubulence and crew member breaks a leg and five day later suffers a bird strike.

Is the aircraft still in Albury ?
