To carry the registration N773WD. Former QF 767-200 VH-EAN. They also own a Gulfstream V that carries the registration N42GX.

Look forward to seeing this crazy aircraft. Certified two weeks ago.

Thanks,

Matt

Lucky bastards.

I still think Steve Jobs travels with a bit more style, though:

I saw this in heavy maintenance in Miami last month. I wondered who it was going to.

Why the strange registration? Why not N773G*?

And why is this not ready for the scrapheap like the other QF 767's?

What kind of paint was she carrying? Or was it still the QF paint. There was an article about this aircraft in the WSJ and it was said that the PPP (Price Per Passenger) was far lower than that of a Gulfstream (which they own). Interesting article. If you have a membership it's worth a read. I'll try to find the article if I can and type it up for you all.

Thanks,

Matt
