VH-HYL
 

I was in MEL today and saw a white tail A320 (HYL) depart and then land about half an hour later, can anyone shed some light on what is happening?

any of the ex AN aircraft that are being returned to the lessors will be test flown prior to their return delivery flight, i would say that is what was happening.

Heard a rumour that HYL was due through Perth in the next few days on the way to Germany so I guess topend3 is correct.

VH-HYJ and VH-HYL transitting Perth tomorrow morning (10th). First will arrive around 0910WST, second a couple of hours behind. One hour tech stop then O/S. Parking nose out Bay 24 (or there abouts) for nostalgia buffs. QF airstairs already prepositioned. :mad: Very angry Golden Winger. Bring on Australian Silk(air):D

VH-HYJ Flt AAA40 dep YPPH for YPCC at 0225z this morning. Acft still in Ansett colours.

VH-HYL Flt AAA41 dep YPPH for YPCC at 0306z. Acft all white colour scheme.
EET 0424 to Cocos. According to the pilot of HYJ both acft bound for Berlin.

Any idea who the pilot was?
