N491EV

Note: Date and time highly subject to change.
Well i've been watching the routing plot here for the past week and so and they have a planned departure from JFK on May 6th at 4:10PM. They dont have an arrival flight into JFK though. We still have not recieved any paperwork we need here in ops so this is planned but highly subject to be later on in time. I will keep you informed of changes but the time is almost here.

Thank you senga. For further reference please view this older topic. One last note its 491 not 941 senga. Alright one more. Highly expecting it to come to JFK on its flight from singapore since around that time if the a/c flow charts stays as it is we will have 2 a/c in C checks, one comming out of a B and one in an A. Though it is highly expected to change when they update the charts before I get into work. ALRIGHT ALRIGHT I have one more this is it I swear :lol: Word is they started getting the Supertanker ready for the season in MZJ. It is N479EV a 747-100. If they do demos like they did last year expect it to stop bye for a fuel n go. I will also keep details on it.

As of 5/2 N491EV is slated to leave SIN at 1115 local time and head to HKG. Sry guys but were going to get beat out on this one. 491 isnt set to come in untill 5/10 at 0115 local. But that isnt fully set. It is possible it can come in on 5/7 in daylight. Stay tuned folks its almost time. :borat:

(Old Post deleted and pasted below)
New updates. 491 is no longer comming in on the 4th. Its new time is May 13th. Again this is highly subject to change. Over here any flights shown after 7 days are considered planned and have a high chance of being changed in some way. 491 will be under the power of P&W 4000 engines :borat:

[SengaB]

No problem.,
It will just be a night shot :)

[Matt Molnar]

MSY, eh? Are they going to use the Supertanker to drop oil dispersant on the Gulf or is that a regular cargo flight?

It is not a regular cargo flight. Its either a test flight or they are going to drop on the oil spill. That I do not know sadly. All I know is this is its first flight since about the fire season ended last year give or take. It was previously sitting without engines I heard.
