Gidday Guys,

Was invited my a mate who works for Virgin Blue for a little tour inside the new V Australia 777-300ER while its in BNE for promotional things/test flights etc. Was a great day, got some sweet pics. Hope you all enjoy!



























There we have it, what a fabulous aeroplane. The flight attendants arent too bad either laugh.gif

Thanks Guys,

Ben

Thanks very much for posting Ben thumbup1.gif
The 777 looks very nice in the paint scheme and the cabin looks pretty good as well.

Noice, very noice pics! drool.gif

I wonder if the rego was nicked off the Vista Austrails forums? I know of a member with that name and have seen it painted on the side of about a dozen different aircraft in screenshots over there!

I though it was just:

V Australia =
V+OZ=
VH-VOZ


Man....wouldn't like to have to make the jump from the cockpit window or door if the slide failed:


Look at the size of the people....then look where the door is, all the way up there!

Yeah, the Callsign is "Vee OZ" so yeah, Im guessing thats where it came from.

Walking up those stairs was an experience in itself, filled with people it was shaking around quite a bit! Would not like to fall that distance either

The rego is VH-VOZ as in V OZ as in V Australia, just like NZ255 said.
The 777 is still a beautiful beast wub.gif
