Hi All,

Just wondering which aircraft this flight will be done with, not sure if it's another aircraft getting repainted for Tiger or just a repaint for Virgin Australia. I assume the latter however I am quite curious, Is someone please able to check for me?

Thanks in Advance,

Bailey F

Is this one of the dodgy paint jobs? Was that a batch of VA 737s?

Yup, Boeing applied the wrong primer to the aircraft when painting them which caused them to rust, hence the reason why some of the YF's and YI's were sent to Seletar earlier this year.

Thought so but then had a moment and thought maybe it wasn't VA 737s I was thinking of. Didn't know about the rust though, that ain't good!
