Had to happen sooner or later! Their current 4 E170s are pretty well maxed out and, last I knew, they were using a QQ F100 to cover DRW-TSV.

[Greg Hyde]

Rowan,

They also were using a QQ F100 on the Darwin to Timor run as well.

Not sure if that service is still going.

VA cargo aircraft? Air work was supposedly the operator of the 737-400 for VA cargo

[Zac M]

There is a Fokker 100 due into Perth tomorrow Callsign SXI1627, it is showing rego VH-OZW which doesn't appear to be right, assume this could be NHA on delivery?

[Max C]

Should be FNC back from maintenance/repaint in BTS.

[Greg Hyde]

NHA has been in Perth for several weeks,

No Dom VA cargo are getting a 733F and Airwork will be the operator.I believe this happens in August.

Qantas freight is the one getting a 734F .Airwork will have nothing to do with this one.

Cheers.
