Ah ok i understand now Craig, thanks. This may be a stupid question but with the current QF 767 freighter runs, i presume are at night, do they just run normal passenger op's nationally somewhere during the day whilst not being used? If this is the case what will these two new aircraft do when not on a freight run or will it consume most of the day with the journey back and forth? Will they be just parked at Sydney somewhere?
