I read on facebook that OJT will depart on the 22nd as QF11 and will not return. It will operate a few services between now and then.

Could well be the case, I note you cannot buy a ticket SYD LAX that day and the daily timetable shows an A380 op that flight number.

I see OJT did a SYD to SFO flight yesterday 10 Sep and has not returned.
Will they keep the other 9 as they seem to be very busy at the moment, until the next 2 787s come it may have room to retire another one.

According to OAG, QF is operating Flt 17 on 22 September by 744 at 11.25am arriving in LAX at 08.10am. There is no return to Australia, so presumably it is OJT on its way to the desert.

Another change for OJT. OEF and OJT swapped in LAX on Tuesday USA time with OEF returning to SYD on QF12 this morning and OJT arriving in BNE at 05.41am today on QF55. I now understand that OJT will do QF55/56 BNE/LAX/BNE arriving on 22 September. It will then go QF55 on Sat 22/9 to LAX for its last pass. flight as there is no QF56 on that day. Then to its final resting place.
Can anyone confirm?

That’s the info I have - off to LAX this evening as QF55, then one final rotation through BNE on Saturday, then positioning from LAX into storage.

Positioning from LAX to storage to be broken up. OJT will be parted out, and chopped. No further flying for this one.
