Qantas to launch London-Sydney test flight despite new sustainability pledge
Interestingly, the aircraft making the Sydney flight, VH-ZNJ, line number 66704, will be preparing to depart LHR (06:00) while the inbound Perth service will be arriving with its predecessor off the Boeing line. Line number 66073, VH-ZNI.
And for those who like to see aircraft in the dark, VH-ZNJ is in Qantas 100th birthday colours.
