Life after Qantas

Postby tor lives » Sat Aug 29, 2015 6:44 pm

Well..... it appears that there is life after Qantas. Here is one of my old girls (VH-OGJ) completely refurbished and about to start a new life with a new owner, (much like me :D )

I thought you were talking about you Ray :D

Looks nice.

I see quite a few Ex- QANTAS 767s have been converted to freighters. Is this the first to back into passenger service?

Probably the most famous "After Qantas" 767.

She is ex VH-EAQ, now N2767, and the personal transport of the owners of Google (aka "Google 1").
I had the privilege of crewing her for many years, (though, I imagine, in a slightly different interior config to what the Google folk would know :D )

That Google jet is probably full of ben bags or some nerdy ergonomic seats good for posture and concentration. :lol:

Of course Google can afford a big jet, the bastards pay bugger all tax (here) in any case! :twisted:
