VH-OQJ Heathrow Technical Issue.
 

Hi..
VH-OQJ arrived into London Heathrow yesterday as QF31 but was unable to depart as scheduled as QF10 to Singapore and Melbourne. The flight was re-scheduled for 0930 on Monday 5 August and was operated by VH-OQB which had arrived from the inbound QF31. Tonight’s QF10 will also be delayed until 0930 tomorrow indicating that VH-OQJ will not be repaired and able to return to service in London today.

It seems that VH-OQJ troubles are taking longer to fix than first anticipated. On Tuesday VH-OQH operated QF10D delayed from Monday after arriving as the inbound QF9. Tonight’s QF10 service is also delayed until tomorrow morning indicating that VH-OQJ will not be repaired today.

OQJ returned today around 12:15 pm as QF6005.

It operated QF10 on Sep07 and ferried up from MEL this morning as QF6005.

She was in H96 when I drove past yesterday arvo.

OQJ operated QF31 yesterday.
