ex-QANTAS B747-300 at Larnaca

[G-CLAW]

There's an ex-QANTAS B747-300 at Larnaca-LCA.

Does anyone have a Reg and know what it's doing there?

Thanks

If you have not got a reg how do you know its ex Qantas, just curios

Because it is in QANTAS livery with Titles and Logo's blanked out.

You only have a choice of 6, VH-EBT through to VH-EBY. EBU was painted in an aboriginal colour scheme, so probably only a choice of 5.

Cannot be EBU as it has been parked for many years at Avalon Airport in Victoria and used as a "Christmas Tree'.

Further to previous post, EBTand EBU have been scrapped, EBX stored awaiting scrapping.
EBV [N175SG ??], EBW [N176SG ??] and EBY [N177SG ??] are with Al SAYEGH Airlines of Bishkek, Kyrgyzstan. Google states that they will be based in Sharjah.

Was just quoting the reg's of the top of my head. I worked extensively on all off them between '00 and '04. If 2 have been scrapped and 1 is awaiting the chop,as you say, then the avionics and cabin upgrade they received was a bit of a waste of time.

Is this what you are after? Thanks to Mike Wards gallery. Fourth from last thumb nail.

Maybe it's waiting for some Hajj work?

Slightly drunken passenger forgot which gate to go to for re-boarding on a transit stop, and was asked which airline he was flying with ?

" Dunno, but the aeroplane had a great white rat on the tail. "
