5 Frames have already been processed through Eirtrade with one more next FY. A quick way of raising capital.

Announcement from QF today that up to 14 mid-life E190s will be sourced to replace the remaining Fokker 100s in the Network fleet.

Linked media release notes that 4 of the A320s released from Jetstar Asia will be transitioned to Network to enable "earlier retirement of four of the Group’s F100 aircraft."

Edit to add: I've included this in the QQ E190 thread because chatter over the last week or so suggests these aircraft will be sourced and provided by QQ, presumably under an arrangement similar to the TL wetlease. Same chatter suggests this batch of E190s will come from KLM Cityhopper; incidentally, I wasn't aware KLM were looking to offload any E190s at this point but it seems at least two are already WFU and stored.

These are the ones that Brenden mentioned earlier (ex. KLM).

Interesting to see if they come via QQ.

Eighty-Seven E-Jets have appeared on the VH-Reg, I was wondering if they might crack the magic "100" by Christmas. With recent announcements it may well be on the cards.
