Last QF 767 passenger revenue flights December 27, 2014

[2233gav]

Over the last few weeks have noticed that the last 76s are getting well used on the East coast. Is this because the company wants to flog them to death before they finally go?

[Tankengine]

They always get well used on the East Coast, why would now be any different?

[Far Canard]

What are the plans for the 767 Simulator?

[noip]

Big sheets of paper with lines and squiggles on them, but that's not important right now.

Farewell, 76es

Good luck to those fortunate enough to fly the B767s for QF tomorrow, last day in service.
So taken for granted in recent years, but great aircraft to have been a pax in.
Don't suppose we'll ever see 2-3-2 config in Y class again

Captain Mike Galvin and F/O Kirrily Zupp have the honour. Two other gun F/Os in Joe Reitemann and Rohan Flick in the jump seats to record it for posterity. Hope Mike doesn't dump it on as the last one although that would probably be a typically 767 and fitting way to finish

Looks like 16R for the spotters. I hope they do a go around and a scenic tour of Sydney whilst they're at it. In fact, can someone pass onto ATC a specific request for that?

Someone linked this video to my Facebook feed. Not sure where it came from!

Surely after 29 years someone knows how to land it!

Nice vid. Good to see hands on throttles and stick!

What's the flight number of the last flight?

[Alien Role]

An aircraft loved by the passengers, the Cabin Crew and especially the Flight Crew; like that other magnificent airframe, the B-727, another great Boeing off the books !
Role on.....

what time is the last flight out of melbourne?

[missy]

Loved the video. Is that what the stopbar system looks like!! Nice examples of threat and error management, RWY 07 being used for arrivals, glad that Emirates turned from TWY Golf to TWY Alpha.

[IsDon]

Quite a nice farewell to OGT here:

Wouldn't be surprised to see Air NZ grab your sim. Either that or just keep using it in situ but for more of their requirements.

Hope Mike doesn't dump it on

Nah. I'm sure that like all good 767 captains, he'll have offered the sector to the FO.
