Alliance Airlines (QQ, Brisbane International) has exclusively appointed Fokker Aircraft Services to market Fokker 70 VH-KBX (msn 11547), a VIP-configured aircraft formerly in service with the Dutch government (Rijksluchtvaartdienst).

The 28.6-year-old jet has been stored at Rockhampton since August 2023, although it has not operated any official flights since November 2022. Originally delivered to the Dutch government in 1996, it was retired from government service in 2017 and replaced with a B737-700(BBJ). Alliance Airlines acquired it for EUR3.7 million euros (USD3.9 million) and deployed it on its own charter network.

The Australian carrier retained the original executive configuration, which includes 12 VIP seats in the front section of the cabin and 12 business-class seats in a standard 2-2 layout in the aft.

"The aircraft has been meticulously maintained throughout its life and boasts a very low utilisation. This represents an exceptional opportunity to acquire a large-size corporate jet with unique outfitting," Fokker Aircraft Services said.

The ch-aviation fleets module shows that Alliance Airlines continues to operate thirteen F70s (of which four are currently inactive) in standard configuration, seating up to 80 passengers each. The carrier also operates twenty-four Fokker 100s but has begun a fleet transition to Embraer aircraft. It currently operates thirty-four E190s. However, during a recent shareholder call, Chairman Steve Padgett confirmed that the Fokker Aircraft regional jets will remain in Alliance Airlines' fleet for another six to nine years.

KBX has been sold and is returning to the Netherlands.

Maybe in time, but from what I read, it is planned to use her for VIP transport role for the next 10 years

Wow this is fantastic Brenden, thanks for sharing!

Zac M 8th July 2024 07:50 AM

VH-SXO (231) was a Sky Air World frame back in 2008, it was then written off flying for Myanmar Airlines in 2019.

VH-UYJ is with Air North still
VH-UYR is back flying for Alliance mainly in the Qlink operation
VH-XFM is still flying for Alliance but I’d guess it will go to the UK soon for maintenance and painting to Air North

UYO, UYW, UYY and UYZ are all Qlink colours

Greg Hyde 8th July 2024 10:21 AM

I did a quick check on the Jet Blue E.190's, apart from N292JB none of the others have moved in SJO. In addition 2 more have ferried to MCN N247JB on 26/6 and N249JB on 17/7 withdrawn from service with JB.

JBU has slowed the E190 retirements which may be due to the SUMMER season in North America as well as delays with the new A220's.

As of 30/07/2024 JBU has to contractually retire E190's; 2024 x 16 & 2025 x 7

Greg Hyde 11th August 2024 04:53 PM

VH-XFC was test flown at Norwich yesterday.

It should be heading home in the very near future in Air North livery.

Zac M 11th August 2024 05:51 PM

Believe XFM is undergoing painting in TSV

Peter Truman 11th August 2024 08:46 PM

VH-XFC on its way home. Departed NWI 1046 Sunday local time.

XFC has finally left MCT today after being there since Sunday night local time. MCT/BLR 01.54am/06.37am, local time, 6 minutes ago.

Dennis McLean 16th August 2024 07:49 AM

XFC due to depart SZB at 06.10 local time (in 22 minutes) for DRW, due at 12.32pm on delivery to Air North.

Dennis McLean 17th August 2024 09:26 AM

C/N 19000629, N374JB, owned by TVPX, which has been in Marana since 12/11/22 has finally departed and is on the way to Halifax via Tucson. This E.190 which I presumed to be the 4th of the last 4 ordered by Alliance, but perhaps it is not??? The first 3 are now VH-A2T, U and V.

Brenden S 17th August 2024 05:28 PM

VH-XFM has been photographed at TSV in all Airnorth colours.

Dennis McLean 17th August 2024 09:35 PM

I have just noted that N374JB is scheduled Halifax to Norwich in 2hr.38m at 11.10am local time. So I must have been correct after all. I guess a paint job etc.

Dennis McLean 18th August 2024 09:00 AM

374JB arrived at Norwich at 10.18pm local time Saturday. I guess when it is ready to depart to Alliance in will be registered VH-A2W.

Stirling D 18th August 2024 09:28 PM
