Happy New Year Gents, and Ladies

Hey any news on when we can expect the arrivals of the next two birds?

MSN050 - VH-OQH
MSN055 - VH-OQI

I have got time off work for a few weeks would love to get to down to Kingsford Smith and see them come in or a least one of them. I have missed every one so far due to work or personal stuff.

Cheers Guys

Have a great new year.

According to Australian Rolls Royce have given the green light to Qantas for the return of the A380 to the LAX routes.

This should happen from Jan 17

You shouldn't do that anyway. I can be bad for your health.

MSN055 is indicated we could be looking at a 14JAN delivery, so the expanded schedule to include LAX sounds plausible.

G'day mates.

VH-OQI left SIN as QF6024 15 minutes ago for SYD. Managed to miss her completely over here. Do be ready for her if you are interested in getting her.
