VH-TBS Boeing 727-100

[F-27pax]

Knowing how knowledgeable all you folk are I'm sure you can help. Not that I really need help, just that I'm curious. One of the Boeing 727s I'm making will be VH-TBS. As you know, it's worn a number of liveries over the years but the most recent seems to be with Aviation Australia with the nice big www. livery down the side. I get the impression that it is no longer flying, so I wonder if anyone knows what is happening with it these days, if it still exists at all.

There is a -100 parked at the old BNE International terminal, which is used as a freight terminal, no idea of the rego, but the most likely candidate
It used to venture through TSV every morning with AAE, and I have a set of walkaround photos of it in the AAE scheme

She was donated to Aviation Australia and is now a static engineering training aid. Still there and very much in one piece as I understand.

I used to refuel TBS at Melbourne at night on the Perth run . Went up in to the cockpit to get the fuel figure one night ,and there was a note on the flight engineers desk saying that number two surged and shut down . Restarted .........all good . I couldn't believe it .!!!

Thanks for the information gents. However, I see that TBS also flew in the DHL white and deep red scheme for a while and I find I have decals for that, so I'll take the easy way out. It will mean that I do two Australian DHL schemes, but such is life.
