yeah, I've heard it too.

My version: B737 being flown in next week to be used as a training simulator ( :shock: ) for an aero club (NOT ROYAL AERO CLUB).

Also, it's apparently going to stay there.

I'd love to see them get it out again if they ever thought about it ;)

maybe with just enough fuel to get them to Perth, and a really light flight crew!

Hi all,

Could be this weekend.
Still not sure if its the ex Ozjet VH-OBN, or a QF 733.

Considering hiding a 737 at jandakot is impossible, and there has been nil word around the airport... it hasn't happened yet.

In true aviation style, noone knows when its happening, we just know that at some point it is *rolls eyes*

It is ex VH-OBN, it will be going into the ex Panama Jacks hangar, which TAFE purchased a while ago. It will be a instructional airframe for training engineers. When it happens is anyones guess. For those who don't know its next to the Fugro hangar, and the tail will be sticking outside of the hanger as its not high enough to house a 737's tail.
