Thanks Greg, I thought it might have turned up tomorrow, but to close the cyclone then.

It may be trying to beat the Cyclone, won't be surprised if it continued onto ADL tomorrow morning (Weather depending)

UYF is now in Norwich. It’s most likely to come back in QFLink livery.

[Dennis McLean]

Similar happened over Christmas/New Year with A2C

Similar happened over Christmas/New Year with A2C

QQ has fulfilled its QF requirement so any new frames will end up with QQ or leased to Air North. They may swap them around for operational requirements.

[Greg Hyde]

A2B is planning a test flight in ADL today

[Dennis McLean]

A2B completed a test flight yesterday, Monday 14/4, as QQ9810, ADL/ADL for 39 mins.

[Greg Hyde]

A2B completed another test flight today (16/04/25) in ADL as QQ9810

[Dennis McLean]

N228JB is on the way. After a test flight SJO/SJO on 14/4, it departed SJO as SXI2512 on 16/4 local time at 08.58 via SDM to OAK, arriving at 16.49. It departed OAK on 17/4 at 08.37 for KOA arriving at 10.32am HST. No further flights are shown yet, on both Flight Aware and Flight Radar 24. I guess it will leave KOA for MAJ and BNE on 18/4 and arrive in BNE on 20/4, all going well.

[Greg Hyde]

Thanks Dennis, from the prev announcements we can expect one a month till early next year.

[Greg Hyde]

A2B is scheduled to enter service today (18/04/25) with UTY3136, ADL -> OLP

[Lauren J]

Hi Ayden, what is the livery

Full Alliance Airlines livery

[Lauren J]

Continuing to Adelaide at 09:00 today. Does anyone know what N228JB’s new registration will be?

[Dennis McLean]

Thanks, Lauren for the livery. Perhaps it could be VH-A2D ???

[Dennis McLean]

Hi Lauren, did you see the Aircraft yourself, if so, did you see the 2 letters on the Nose Wheel

[Lauren J]

Hi Lauren, did you see the Aircraft yourself, if so, did you see the 2 letters on the Nose Wheel

I did, but it was too dark for my camera to focus so I could not see. I am waiting for it to depart this morning (already 30min late!), so if it takes off soon I will let you know :)

[Lauren J]

Hi Lauren, did you see the Aircraft yourself, if so, did you see the 2 letters on the Nose Wheel

NLG door says ‘JB’ on it Dennis!

[Dennis McLean]

Oh Ok so it is not registered yet and did not have the registration at that stage. I have had a look at CASA but nothing yet.

[Greg Hyde]

N238JB @ MROC in QQ livery.

When has QQ added a frame to the VH-Reg before or several days after arrival ?

Once that I can remember (A3U)

We might be lucky for it hit the VH-Reg before Anzac Day.

[Robbie Mathieson]

Continuing to Adelaide at 09:00 today. Does anyone know what N228JB’s new registration will be?

"2F" is what's above the flightdeck so presumable it'll become VH-A2F

[Greg Hyde]

"2F" is what's above the flightdeck so presumable it'll become VH-A2F

We have a winner, wait to appear on the VH-Reg to confirm

[Ryan Hothersall]

My guess is VH-A2F. Has 2F painted above the windscreen and A2B & A2C are in service.

[lloyd fox]

I have been told the next one to come over will become VH-A2I .:)

[Brenden S]

I think you are on the money Lloyd.

[Greg Hyde]

VH-A2F was added to the VH-reg on 02/05/25

A2F is the 85th E-Jet for Oz & 44th for QQ

[Dennis McLean]

N238JB completed a test flight SXI2518, SJO/SJO on 5 May local time. It is now scheduled to start delivery SJO/SDM 7 May at 15.06, in just under 3 hours.

[Greg Hyde]

Interestingly they skipped N236JB ?

N238JB is in QQ livery (above) and should by VH-A2J if they follow the rego pattern

[Greg Hyde]

A2F is currently conducting a test flight in ADL as UTY9821

Running out of parking space.

[Dennis McLean]

I see that N238JB's flight to KDM did not happen

[Greg Hyde]

I see that N238JB's flight to KDM did not happen

Looks like they filed several flights over several days, now showing departure in 9 hours time.

SXI are doing well, when your compare this flight number with A2F

This was also the 1st production a/c

I was hoping it was continuing on to ADL like the last few have done.

Guess there's no room for it here.

[Greg Hyde]

ADL was getting a bit boring anyway.

Ryan, that may well be the problem.

Not sure how many parking spots they have in Rocky, last time I heard, the two old JB frames were still in the hangar
