Next one for Tiger has had its first flight VH-XUH.

VH-XUI is not far off either.

No Sharklets are installed on these or any future aircraft.

Please ensure all new Tiger aircraft carry a role of gaffa tape in the glove box.
Apparently / allegedly an Adelaide Melbourne flight was held for 6 hours whilst they flew an engineer to fix a tray table in the exit row. Apparently the engineer was flown from Melbourne to Adelaide on another carrier.

Solution? Wrap gaffa tape around the seat to prevent it from deploying in the exit row.

Looking forward to getting my hands on some more new one's, :-).

Shame there's no sharklet's though, :-(.

Is this because the sectors are to short for any real difference? I would have thought the coast to coast flights would benefit.

Based on the lessors requirements, not the airlines.

Rumour has it that XUH is parked up in TLS.

VHVNK returned from XSP yesterday, it's had a partial repaint to the titles and engines but the tail is still original.

VH-VNB is in Seletar at the moment

Repaint???

JamesL 19th August 2014 09:49 PM

Yes

Greg Hyde 19th August 2014 11:41 PM

Any word when the new ones stored in TLS will be delivered ?
