EBS is currently enroute to BNE as QF6011 for further maintenance requirements.

Reports that the tyre blowout happened on takeoff from FCO.

It appears VZG is the next 737 to get the SSW, it is having wing modifications performed at BNE

I would be very surprised is this is the case, as previously stated in this thread by very reliable sources it should be VZT-XZP getting the splits

I believe this was implied from the Qantas announcement, with the assumption that the 23 newest 737s will receive splits. However, Qantas themselves didn’t specifically say this.

QANTAS Flight Status is showing QF6014 operated by an A380 scheduled to depart AUH on Friday morning (10:10 local) and arriving in SYD at 6:10 AEST Saturday morning, 31/8/24. Subject to change, of course.

Does anyone know which A380 of the four currently in AUH is returning and the registration of any other A380 that maybe heading to AUH for maintenance as a replacement. Many thanks.

My guess is OQK

Latest results are out with only impact fleetwise is the delay in deliveries, last 734f will go next year.

I thought the 734F was retired last week? Is it being reintroduced to service?
