Taxying for a 28L departure in front of the 1955 vintage tower, either from the cargo terminal or the VIP area at Heathrow.I never photographed many Qantas planes , must have been the arrival times

VH-EBK seen here before being leased to Air Pacific.

VH-EBR was flown to Australia in February 1966 after delivery was delayed while modifications were made. In June 1974 it was sold to Malaysian Airlines as 9M-MCR.

This is a convertible pax/cargo aircraft with a large forward freight door fitted with windows. It is carrying an under-wing pod for a spare engine.

VH-EAJ photographed ahead of its delivery flight. I was part of a media party invited to Everett for a briefing on the now forgotten Boeing 7J7 propfan project that coincided with the handover. We were then flown to Fiji on a regular Qantas flight (from LAX) to join VH-EAJ on the final leg of its delivery flight to Sydney which included a pass over its namesake city, Wollongong. Qantas would be the only operator of the aircraft, which flew into storage in 2003 and later scrapped.
