Zhengzhou, China is where the last batch of P2F were converted.

There’s a bare metal Jetstar A320SL parked near the MAS hangars, saw it this arvo.

VGF is currently in Seletar. The word on the street is that she will be repainted, will be the first A320 Classic in the new livery. I guess we will see when she comes back.

Does anyone know what has happened to 788, VH-VKA which has been on the ground in CNS since 19 July. It departed CNS for KIX as JQ15 at 12.33pm but returned at 1.39pm.

Engine issues

Thanks Stirling

I read somewhere that VKA had an engine failure.

VKA ferried CNS-MEL as JQ8991 yesterday (Tuesday) morning, then returned to service operating JQ29 MEL-BKK and is currently about to land in MEL operating the return JQ30 from BKK.
