Todd M Posted August 16, 2009 Share Posted August 16, 2009 I have on good word VH-TJO is now in the new paint scheme (Left AVV Earlier). Will have to see it for myself yet (Should hopefully see it soonish, seeing we are the 734 Capital), but if anyone gets any pics would like to see it!

Guest Chainsaw Posted August 19, 2009 Share Posted August 19, 2009 Hey Todd! Any ideas what it might look like and it's purpose...freighter? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Todd M Posted August 20, 2009 Author Share Posted August 20, 2009 Just be the stock standard large kick out Kangaroo and Spirit of Australia titles, nothing special! Purpose, I would say the paint was getting to the point of repaint time. (However am still yet to see it in the flesh) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Chainsaw Posted August 20, 2009 Share Posted August 20, 2009 Thanks Todd, I find it interesting that they have repainted a 734! Maybe they are looking to keep them a lot longer. Painting is not cheap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Todd M Posted August 20, 2009 Author Share Posted August 20, 2009 Thats what struck me as weird, however you gotta do what you gotta do! One of JetConnects 734's has been repainted, ex-VH-TJP. It looks sleek, however has the Spirit of Australia titles which have never been applied to Jetconnect aircraft. http://www.jetphotos.net/viewphoto.php?id=6631320&nseq=0 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nzom_pilot Posted August 20, 2009 Share Posted August 20, 2009 One of JetConnects 734's has been repainted, ex-VH-TJP. It looks sleek, however has the Spirit of Australia titles which have never been applied to Jetconnect aircraft. 3 of the 4 Jetconnect 734s are in the new scheme with spirit of Australia titles (JTP, JTQ, JTR) the 4th (JTS) is in the old scheme with spirit titles, while the 3 733s are still in the old scheme minus the titles. The 734s were repainted in the new scheme with the titles because they are due to be re-introduced into Australian domestic services after the new 738s enter Jetconnect service. The first of the new 738s arrives next week (ZK-ZQA) but the first 3 will replace the 733s that will be retired and sold/scrapped overseas,so the 734s will remain in Jetconnect service for another year or so yet.

Todd M Posted August 27, 2009 Author Share Posted August 27, 2009 I took a closer look at the new livery on VH-TJO today, and someone stuffed up with the QANTAS Titles. On one side, there is a rather noticable white line about 3 Quarters of the way down the wording which cuts it in two. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
