Alliance first F70 Arrived BNE last night.
First Fokker 70 for a Australian carrier.

Southern Cross 1028 was the callsign.

According to my SBS logs, it looks like Virgin Australia VH-YVA may have come into Brisbane very late on the 30 June from Christchurch. I would imagine it is still to enter service.

YVA is repositioning from BNE now as VOZ9064, looks to be headed to MEL.

Hi...

Apparently YVA entered service today as DJ725 MEL to OOL.

Regards,

Steve S

p.s. Not sure what they named YVA ?? ... but YFF is named Wineglass Bay.

[Brock Little]

I can confirm that YVA did indeed do DJ725 today
Here she is on departure from OOL as DJ730, back to MEL.



There isn't a name underneath the maiden on YVA, and there isn't 'Wineglass Bay' written under the maiden on YFF either:



No name on YFF

VH-VZO has touch down in Melbourne

VH-VZO QF6024 11/07/2011 16:05 Qantas B737-838 Sydney-Melbourne

[Tim Bowrey]

Grahame just to slightly adjust your 16Right data. I beleive it, as well as the rest of the new deliverys, ferry NAN-MEL and not into SYD.

[Alexander.L]

Does anyone know what VH-VZO first revenue flight is?

Thanks
