QF6001
There 's currently a QF 744 reg VH-OEG partway across the Pacific en route SYD - LAX. There have been a few Air NZ repatriation flights operating AKL-YVR-FRA, returning German nationals. Can anyone confirm if QF6001 is doing the same, or is she heading for parking in the desert?

A Kenyan Airlines captain died two days after doing a repatriation flight from the US.
He got sick 5 days after the flight and died 2 days later. He'd been to Italy the trip before, and spent 2 days layover in New York on his final one. He tested negative several times up until the time he presented at the hospital, where he was positive. He was also 63, so in the higher risk group. Maybe "senior" pilots shouldn't be flying?
