Hot rumour direct from QF top brass is that they WILL be bringing back into service the 747 currently parked at Longreach together with another 707 as back-up, as soon as it arrives and gets a nice red and white paint job. Negotiations are also well advanced with a Mr J Travolta for his plane, since it is already painted in more or less the right colours.and has a QF qualified crew member. EADS will be footing the bill on a dry lease arrangement. negotiations to acquire two further DC3's currently residing at a BK museum are continuing.
