Was taken over by Qantas not long time ago. What a pity for the livery!

Takeoff at Sydney. No VOZ cause it crashes my sim all the time; reason remains unknown.

Climbing..what a nice morning to fly!

Skipping the cruise and directly to the landing in Auckland

Reverse thrust deployed

And off comes the luggage, in comes the food!

Hope you enjoyed, thanks for looking!

Wow, some awesome shots there, good job.  Where did you locate the a/c?
Loving the ground vehicles, they look great.

So would you say that Qantas bought them at an "impulse"? *goofy laugh* ;D


Great shots though.

Actually Impulse 717's went to National Jet Systems operating under Qantas link, they were then sold to JetStar. A few years later they were phased out from JetStar and 8  were given back to National Jet Systems and 6 are currently in storage at YBNE.

Nice shots, I love the 717! I've flown on VH-LAX and VH-VQJ. VQJ has been replaced by an A320 and is in storage :( LAX (now VH-NXG) is still flying, longterm  ;D

Did anyboddy know ,that my first plane was also a 717 ,but it was so ugly that I never talk about it(was my first :P) But The VC I made for it was very good ,maybe I'll remake someday the exterior and add the old VC and try get looks like this one

Great Shots Ijineda
