QANTAS one
Alan Erskine wrote
I saw it on the news - virtually rebuilt to flying status by volunteers. Apparently, it's going to Longreach (Queensland - birthplace of Qantas) for the museum. I don't remember hearing JT-8's, so I'd have loved it to make a flying visit to Melbourne, but alas... B-707s (138Bs) were equiped with JT-3D engines, B-727s had JT-8s.
