Another interesting combination, VH-VQG still sporting the basic American Airlines color scheme and fleet number (1WD) and QantasLink registration. This aircraft was signed over to the airline on 05/20/2002 and flown from Victorville (VCV) California to Austrailia via Japan. Sitting on the Osaka-Kansai (KIX) ramp, this ex TWA/American Airlines aircraft provides
a unique photo op for the local airliner photographers.
