I'm not sure of the exact time of departure from Johannesburg - but I believe the QF B747 that had the engine failure (VH-OJL I think it is), when it finally departs JNB, it will probably be carrying a fifth engine back to Sydney.
Keep a watch out for it.
Apologies if this is the wrong forum for this - I have no idea what forum to post this kind of information in. Don't know if it is Civil aviation, photography related or aviation hobby related.

Yes, I photographed OJU in the Oneworld colours taking off (you can see it on my site). I found out later from a source where it went as QF6020.
I'm also posting this since I'm hoping someone will post a reply and let us know when VH-OJL gets going, so YSSY photographers get a chance to take a photo of the plane with 5 engines.
