Photo Comment

When VH-HYI arrived in Melbourne from Toulouse in January 1991 the airline had already adopted a new livery, presumably too late for Airbus to apply. The aircraft was ferried the "long way round" via the US. Whether it had titles is not clear but at the time photo it didn't. -HYI entered service on February 24 and is assumed the new livery had been applied. This aircraft would fly the last Ansett service on March 5, 2002. Sold in Germany as D-AKFW later that year. Mike Madden photo
