Quantas
 

here is a challenge - can anyone tell me why, on 13 May 1989, Quantas VH-EBX B747 visited Dublin, and why one week later, on 20 May 1989, VH-EBU and VH-EBX both visited Dublin?

First thing, write ten thousand times: "I must spell QANTAS correctly" !!!

Queensland And Northern Territorial Aerial Services

Sorry about spelling it wrongly but I think you will find that its Queensland and Northern TERRITORY Aerial Services LTD

You are correct, i stand admonished ;) With regard to your question, i have no idea, but as the Celtic Tiger hadn't started roaring back in 1989, it might have been an Australian tour company bringing ethnic Irish citizens back to the auld sod for some type of visit ? Maybe check the dates to see if there were any special events/historical anniversaries that might fit ?

They were not the only ones to visit Dublin durring that time
Team Aerlingus which became FLS Aerospace which became SR technics won the maintanance contract for the 747 and all of the Qantas fleet visited at some stage
