VH-VOX hasn't flown since the September 2nd with its last flight from Sydney to Melbourne. I'm guessing VOX is going to go through the same process as VUM and VUN in getting returned to the lessor.

No, pretty normal for Boeing, ff 25/10 & del 02/11.

It expect it depends on what other a/c are going through flight test & delivery stages.

When you're producing 42 B737s per month, you need to get them out the other end as quick as possible. Boing are looking at raising the rate to 47 in 2017, and 52 in 2018 - a mind blowing production line.

Looks like VOX has left the fleet with a 7 hour 19 minute flight from BNE to CGK.

Also, does any have a list of the engine thrust ratings for each sub-fleet of the 73s? Eg YIx, YFx, YVx
