For those old enough to remember ...

The B717 were delivered via the northern route.

They don't have the range to cross the pacific.

YQV arrived in Adelaide on 21/12/2013 from from Jacksonville Fl via Billings/Logan, Anchorage, Sokol, Magadan, Cebu & Darwin.

So they could be going anywhere.

Possibly still a bit of life left in it at 17 years as it's the second last 717 off the production line (one behind the last VH-YQW).

The oldest in the QJE fleet is -NXI a 1999 build
