Qantas Delays/Cancellations

[exLXCXFF]

QF11 left late and just did a wonderful fly-past over Balmoral beach at around 4000+ ft

QF7 on Saturday 10 January from SYD to DFW was changed again, being expected to depart at 2010. As at 2020, it hadn't become airborne.

UPDATE: A388 VH-OQB took off at 2046 hours. FR24 claims arrival at gate becomes 2145, 555 minutes late. This seems a big overestimate. I've noticed recently that initially, FR24 can exaggerate delays for forecast arrivals, especially the longer distance flights. Often it corrects this during the flight. I don't know why the apparent mistake.

The only thing that I can think of is perhaps QF have given up on waitng for things to cool down sufficiently and are now going to do a fuel stop somewhere?
