Guys,
I don't think (could be wrong) that QF/QLink have leased specific aircraft (ie: VH-UYC).
They would of leased a number of E190's, in QFLink livery and 94PAX.
So, after the fleet settles down (with all the appropriate in livery) they may have an extra a/c in QLink livery as a spare in-case an a/c goes u/s. Also a spare when an a/c is under maintenance. Again that has to be specified in the agreement.
QF has leased (or may need) "ALL" COPA Jets so that QQ can't do anything else with them. That's why the AA birds were added later.
I would be REALLY SURPRISED if QQ repainted a/c with fresh paint.
