Just throwing it out there............ Rats!......
Yea I know EB isnt an ER but they did paint it in OW colors so i'm figuring it to be one of the last. Note they havent painted any 747's aside from EB and JS.Quote:

Like I mentioned before, your best argument for why Wunala will be one of the last 747s retired is because it is the newest 747 in Qantas' fleet. End of story hombre.Quote:

The Qantas 747 fleet will be completely retired eventually as they receive more A380s and at some point the 787. As per which 747s are retired in what order is completely up to Qantas and something we do not know and can merely contemplate. I wouldn't be terribly surprised if the 747 returns JFK in the near future.
JS is socceroo. They didnt paint it just cause it was in a hanger. I know it will be over time. I hope your right on that Iberia. I would love Wunala to return.Quote:

Didn't even see the mating Kangaroo scheme during my 2 trips to JFK.
I expected maybe I'll have a chance someday at LAX, but this invasion of A330 is gonna make it harder.
@ Nlovis and Iberia: ladies, please. you're both beautiful.
@ Mati, mating Kangarooo???? What did I miss?
Three Kangaroos chasing after each other into the other side of the plane that's not visible. Use your imagination..Quote:

There are a few others but I can't recall. Sadly, it's hard to get access to take close-up photos anymore. In the 80's, I could stand for hours at the end of Rwy 31R by taxiway "WW" to take photos; those days are gone. I would wave to the pilots.
Here's an idea. When the A330 finally comes, they should let the local graffiti vandals spray paint it and call it "Ghetto Dreaming"
Back in Australia, they discover the idea has failed. Certain ramp worker has spray painted a giant RAT on the tail.
I saw a regular Qantas B744 on Thursday taxying at JFK but it had something like the words "COME HOME" painted on the center of the fuselage in black lettering and the letter "O" ressembled a soccer ball. What is the meaning? Is it to do with the World Cup? Sorry I couldn't see the tail #.
It was the OneWorld Painted 747-400. It has something to do with soccer.
