F100 VH-NHP is scheduled to go to WGA on Jun 09 for the new livery.

Q300's start on Jul 27 in TSV
Q400's in Dec
Q200's in 2019
B717's in Jul 218

All subject to change.

The entire process will take 5 years

Should have started a paint shop and business card printer, I would be rich!

Wow, I can't believe it will take that long! It has taken Qantas so long to repaint their fleet from the last brand update that there are now three versions of the 'roo flying around.

Rowan McKeever 1st June 2017 10:08 AM

I can't believe NXK, L & M are going to stay looking as they are for another 13-14 months at least!!!

Any word on mainline fleet - B737s, etc?

Adam W 30th June 2017 10:47 AM

Looks like VXM is going in for a repaint. Operating QF 77 PER-SIN today with no return flight.

Steve S... 2 30th June 2017 02:06 PM

Nice :)

I can't wait to see it in the new livery.

I know I am replying to an old post, been offline for a 6 weeks or so. Simple fact none of the Qantas livery changes since the 1984 change have been that big, so for the most part no to little need to rush them through. Unlike say when Virgin went from Virgin Blue to Virgin Australia, or a major change like American Airlines.

For the most part it is the plane nuts who would notice differences in the Qantas liveries, and even then, this plane nut doesn't take that much notice.

VYD will operate QF71 on Thursday and go into painting with VXM operating QF72 back to Perth. VXM will do some intra-WA flying on Friday and then head east via ADL overnighting in Melbourne, I would assume it will get some east coast flying on Saturday.

Still no sign of NHP returning from WGA strangely

Robert.M 11th July 2017 10:56 PM

NHP didn't enter the hangar until the 21st June due to the Indonesian Air Force C130H being in the hangar. I suspect it should be out later this week or next.

Thanks for putting us out of our misery, Robert... knew you'd have the answer :D

Zac M 14th July 2017 09:14 AM

VXM arrived back in Perth in the early hours of this morning!
airliners.net

VYD ended up ferrying to Jakarta for painting so assume there may be some issues with paint slots in SIN

NathanJ 14th July 2017 10:16 AM

VXM is currently inbound to Sydney from PER as QF574.

Grahame Hutchison 14th July 2017 02:33 PM

The Qantas belly title starts behind the nose wheel and runs back to the engines - on the A330 it is located between the main gear (B738 has exposed main gear tyres, so logo could not go there)

Looks good... my only issue is with the text.. is it just me or is it a bit far away from each other... Nice photo Grahame

I have only seen a partial belly shot, and my first thought was that the Qantas title looks un-balanced being on the forward fuselage belly, rather than in the middle. I will reserve my opinion until I can shoot a full belly shot.

Agreed. It'd look a lot better more forward, something like this.

I'm definetly excited to see the new 787-9 in this livery, will they be delivering them staggered or all in one hit?

I agree. It does look great but I think the 'Spirit of Australia' titles are placed too far down the fuselage.

Yes, much better! Good photoshop. 👍🏼

Max C 16th July 2017 09:22 PM

NHP due out of WGA on 19/07.

Robert.M 18th July 2017 08:12 PM

Out of the hangar! Shocking day weather wise though

Looks good IMHO. Kangaroo on the engine nacelle is nice. Has Connie come back to HARS since it was repainted?

Thanks for posting!

Steve S... 2 19th July 2017 08:55 AM

Wow the livery looks great on the Fokker 100 but I think it looks wrong on the 737-800 for some reason.

No, has remained in WGA. Have heard of the reason why it is still here from elsewhere.

Reduced visibility caused some issues this morning with incoming flights (low cloud and drizzle). Had a flight plan for a 11am departure but wasn't until 11:58am.

Fantastic photos, Robert.

I often wonder why Qantas don't put 'Spirit of Australia' titles on the Qantaslink aircraft - particularly on the 717's and Fokker 100's where there's a bit more room?

Max C 19th July 2017 03:04 PM

QantasLink have also named NHP Paraburdoo by the looks of it.

Zac M 22nd July 2017 12:18 AM

Been waiting to see a pic of SBB but none seemed to have popped up on the internet yet?

Robert.M 18th August 2017 05:16 PM

I've seen a few photos floating around, including instagram. I've been waiting for her to visit but keep ending up getting SBJ or SBV visiting!
