VH-IYW is the aircraft Greg. ETA 2300 into Perth today.

thks Brenden.

It looks like Comham is replacing BAe146's with Dash-8's (could be wrong)

Broadly speaking , yep, that's the plan Greg. More E190s possible too.

Greg, they did announce that in some media release a few years ago now. 146/RJ to DHC8D's

IYW was added to the register on 27/04

Embraer 190 LR 190.00616 VH- Cobham Aviation Services for delivery may21 ex MST after paint, G-reg ex G-CIDI

Not sure where to put this one.However today i got a call to tell me another Hevilift ATR42 was BWU-BNE.
VH-YWX is the reg and it has the new EXPRESS titles as well

I believe this may have come from CNS storage prior to BWU?? ..Anyone know and have the previous reg and airline?

EDIT Been just told P2-AVV.

FR24 is now showing TOLL ATR42F VH-TOQ as HT401 ...BWU-BNE.

Not 2 new Hevilift ATR42 deliveries in the one day??????:)

Heavilift has taken over the former Toll ATR’s

Sharp Airlines has also taken over the Toll Metro fleet.
The ex Air North Metro’s in DRW have also ferried to ADL, most likely for Sharp as well.

ex Air North Metro's owned by East West, ops by Sharp crew.

Air North only have one Merto (VH-ANA)?

ANA, ANW, ANY

Expected to become VH-IQA

IQA has been painted on the aircraft already and is expected to be here soon.

Thanks!

On its way flying under G-Reg
