This is great news!
I wonder what QANTAS are going to name these birds. I would like them to be named after Australian capital cities like the old 744's were. I'm assuming their registration will either be VH-OGx, VH-EAx or VH-OJx.
So for the 744 retirements, it's a big shame that the younger Rolls-Royces are going too. Well the 787's are being delivered in two years so they will be quite old by the time they are withdrawn. I originally thought they were going to get rid of two of the ERs but I assume that the other two airframes of the five Qantas said were retiring are OJM and OEB.
