Nice John, I'll do the same too!

Glad to you the Aussie collectorate have some releases long sought after. Look good despite the errors mentioned.

[ALITALIA_747]

Yeah, it is a bitter sweet feeling atm lol. Really happy about the releases, but knowing that they are riddled with errors, just takes that wow factor away.

[ALITALIA_747]

Another Aussie arrival touched down today! It is the Big Bird Qantas/B.A hybrid Boeing 747 400 VH-NLH!

I didn't realise that one was a VH reg.
What was the story behind it do you know?

[davesoda727]

She VH-NLH, was leased to QANTAS to cover Maintaince on the 747 fleet but stayed for a bit longer after the Ansett collapse.

According to Aussie Airliners org, she carried the VH-NLH reg from 2000-2003. I am really warming to these hybrids!

[Guest]

It was also known as "Nevel Leaves the Hangar" as it frequently went tech.<div></div>

[Aviation Delight]

Interesting never knew they leased that from BA. Great find, thanks for sharing. Always something interesting info here on MAC

[ALITALIA_747]

Thanks for the comments gents! Unless i can get my hands on some of those BB400 Qantas 200'sthis will be it for the Qantas 747's!I might nowgo on a Qantas A380 binge! I only have one in 1:400, which isVH-OQB! So i am looking at adding the first VH-OQA Nancy bird, and hopefully a couple of others!

[Aviation Delight]

Good luck with your 380 search. Plenty have been done.

[ALITALIA_747]

Thanks Mark. Yeah, a crap load have been made, but i will be real specific! I will grab VH-OQA because it was the first one delivered! Then i will try get the one in the primer livery, even tho it has the incorrect tail! Last but not least, i wouldnt mind the tour version!
