Fleet Update (Qantas Group)

[Flyerqf]

VH-OJJ is planned to be withdrawn in April, once SIN-FRA ceases. OJJ is a leased aircraft. There will also be a retirement for one Qantas owned 744 before end of June. Rego not known but for simplicity/consistency of fleet configuration and with less F routes now, it should be OEB. Based on age it would be OJA.

OJJ has apparently been withdrawn, operating it's last flight last week as QF108 LAX-SYD. Rumour is that it's leaving for storage on 14th March. Unlike VH-OJD that left last week, it won't operate to the USA for storage as a revenue flight.

I think this will be the last 747 retirement this financial year.

I hear Iran are looking for some cheap 747s... Possible commercial opportunity.
