Rego Request: Past DJ Flights
 
Hi All,

I'm trying to find out what aircraft I flew on for some recent (and not so recent) flights. I searched on Graeme's 16Right.com but was unable to find the flights. Does anyone know why the DJ 737s don't come up on ACARS?

2009
11 March - DJ838 - SYD-MEL
16 March - DJ845 - MEL-SYD

2010
17 October - DJ986 - BNE-SYD

2011
4 March - DJ886 - SYD-MEL
6 March - DJ893 - MEL-SYD

Any assistance that can be offered is most appreciated!

Do you mean BNE-SYD?

Gareth, Virgin Blue 737's have never been on Acars (except for a few test's now and then); this question has been asked many times on various forums and the general response is that they don't use it for whatever reason.

Good news is that the E-Jet's and latest 737's and A330's do use acars.

The following series use ACARS.

VH-VU series
VH-YF series
VH-YV series

Thanks for the info guys. Brock, you're right, I forgot I flew up to OOL, then drive to BNE and flew back from there.

Cheers,
Gareth

Only the very last VU series ones. From about VUX onward I think, maybe not even that

Gareth, I believe you were on VH-VOA for DJ986. :)

Tim Bowrey 5th July 2011 10:43 PM

Gareth you mongo we were on that DJ986 BNE-SYD flight together on 17OCT10 and it was VH-VOM ;)

Brock Little 5th July 2011 10:49 PM

Awkies...apologies for the false rego ;)

Gareth Forwood 7th July 2011 07:01 PM

Haha oh yeah, my bad Tim. I'll have to get better at looking out for the regos in future, or at the very least try to take note of who I'm flying with:p
