ZNM finished its next 2 flights PAE/MWH, 10 minutes on the ground, MWH/PAE, just under 1 hour ago.

May be a CAF based on flight duration.

When rolled out on 21/07/2020 ZNM was called "Mateship"

I've seen several images taken recently where it look like the name is taped over.

Does anyone know if the name was changed ?

Delivery flight of ZNM is scheduled for June 3

ZNN had it's first flight today (or was it yesterday? Timezone stuff) since October last year.

Interestingly she’s still not been painted in full QF livery with the rego N1020K applied.

ZNN was to be a logo jet when first rolled out.

Yep thatÂ’s what I was alluding too, I did hear whispers she was to be painted into a One World livery, but that was back when she first rolled out.

Just out of interest did Boeing paint -ZND and -ZNJ into their special schemes before or after customer acceptance? Or were they painted elsewhere after delivery?
