Such a long way from home. It sits outside the Hangaar next to mine in Brisbane and this is the first time I have noticed it has winglets

Glad to hear Shaun that you're back up and running again. Most of the frames that go to Lasham make it back out again so I would expect they find new homes as the aviation sector recovers.

Denis.

Thanks Denis, fingers crossed mate.

Awesome photos mate, well done. I work for Virgin Australia and seriously hoping the Tiger and VA frames have not reached end of life. Once we disclaimed them when we went into administration we lost track of where they ended up. Luckily now we are back in the air, we have leased a lot of them back.

I cant begin to imagine how challenging this shot was to take. Kudos to you Sir

Thanks for the great post, awesome photos. I have been with Virgin Australia for nearly 18 years and as you will know we have been through a bit of rough patch the last 2 years but the future is looking great. I am really glad these have found a new home and I will follow their life as they take to ...

Great photos, shame about the lighting but well done and thanks for posting.

Simply stunning photo. Love the colours and the gear half retracted.
