Their fifth 787, VH-ZNE (CN 63391), arrived in Melbourne on the 1st July and after being on the ground in Melbourne for the last week it went into service this morning. ZNE's first revenue flight was QF 604, Melbourne - Brisbane. Its push back time was 7.10am but unfortunately it departed 20 minutes late and got airborne from runway 27 at 7.34am. It made up some time on the way us as it landed in Brisbane on runway 01 right on time at 9.20am.

ZNE had a departure time of 11am so it was on the ground for 1 hour 40 when it departed back for Melbourne getting airborne at 11.10am. It is due to come back to Brisbane this afternoon arriving here at 6.20pm.
The 787's seem to be put on the Melbourne - Brisbane rotation for now as I am booked to come home from Melbourne this coming Thursday and it is a 787... really looking forward to this.
When I got out to the airport I noticed all the arriving aircraft had con trails coming from the wing flaps.
Below are some other photos I took while I was out there and I had three firsts today, first time seeing the Qantas 787 in Brisbane, first time seeing the Philippine A321Neo and the first time seeing the China Airlines A350 special livery.
