Qantas retires first (and last) Boeing 747-438ER Longreach

Featured Replies

OJA is indeed a -438 (Non-ER). Now they have four RR-powered 438s as well as seven -438ERs. Great video by the way!!

 

Not quite correct.

 

We have 5x RR powered 747-400's (OJI, OJM, OJS, OJT, OJU) and 1x GE powered 400 (OEB) and 6x 400ER's (OEE-OEJ)

After retirements are done throughout 2015 I heard there should still remain 9 reconfigured 747s in the Qantas fleet but not sure how long.

 

Anyone know if Qantas plans to keep the 9 reconfigured 747s indefinitely or are there medium term plans to retire those 9 as well?

 

 

I could not find a livery of this model online, so I made this one to go along with the original Qantas 707 livery I made.  Sometime soon I will go and visit the museum when this 747 is open for inspection, as I flew on her in real life several times.

Oops! My bad. 

Thanks,
