As far as I know Qantas did not operate the DC-10...

Ok, this is where it gets complicated. Qantas did infact operate a sole DC-10, BUT!! Always a but, i know lol. It was a Martinair PH-MBT registered aircraft,The last recorded flight was QF842 SIN/BNE/SYD on 11FEB88. The aeroplane carried stickers stating "On Lease to Qantas"."


Qantas were considering purchasing the DC-10, but it did not eventuate.

I knew about the Martinair 747-100 operated by Qantas but not the Dc-10. Got a pic John

[ALITALIA_747]

Guys, from what i read, it only had the On lease titles.. Dave, i have been looking high and low without any luck. The DC-10 was the same time as the B747-100, so someone must have a pic!
