This dear reader, is the fifteen year old 747-400 which got us to the big Apple. Excuse the pole in the middle. It was the best I could do. Registration is VH-OEF.
It is difficult to photograph an aircraft when you’re sitting in it.
Our plane was one of the four (I think) 747s remaining in Qantas colours. They are being phased out in favour of 787 Dreamliners, but frankly, I was OK with the big bird. Our plane was roomy, refurbished, and comfortable. Surprisingly, it also wasn’t full, and we had empty seats in our row.
It also had state of the art in-flight entertainment which occasionally reset itself. Mostly it was great, with heaps of late run movies.
This is a bad pic of the range of entertainment options.
Qantas tucker is OK. This is lunch (Cuban beef) with mashed potato.
And this was breakfast. Long distance air travel is probably the closest human experience to that of a battery hen....
