VH-OQK touched down in SYD at 10:56 this morning and has parked at bay 5 on the freight apron.

QANTAS is now showing a flight to AUH departing Monday at 13:00 as QF6013. The aircraft could be an A330 but is more likely to be an A380 replacing OQK. Hopefully, this will be only a short period of maintenance. Any update as to aircraft and/or registration would be greatly appreciated.

Any word on VXO? Hasn’t flown since 02/09.

I just had a look at the other 7, all are working but if it is one of the 7, perhaps OQL might be close to heading home

OQL is mid 2025, OQC in 2026.

Thanks Mark

6013 tomorrow will be OQD

Thanks Zac for the information. OQD flew to LAX yesterday and will return to SYD as QF12 tomorrow morning in readiness to operate QF6013 to AUH at 13:00. Hopefully it will only be a short period of maintenance for OQD.

A380 OQD is currently operating QF6013 SYD to AUH for maintenance while OQK has returned to service operating QF1 SYD-SIN-LHR this afternoon.

VH-OQG, QFA63 SYD-JNB returning to SYD.

QOD operating SYD-BHQ as QF2017 has squawked 7700 and is currently holding over SYD.
