[ACARS] VH-NLH Permanent Duty?

QF flight numbers in the 6000 range are generally ferry flights,
positioning flights or charters.

I believe that VH-NLH returned to BA earlier this year for scheduled
maintenance before returning to Australia. It may have done a
'supplementary' passenger flight to FRA (Ie, an extra pax flight) to
prevent it ferrying empty halfway across the world.

I last picked it up in Perth, Australia on 26th January this year.

Hello Mike,

No idea about the routing - though Frankfurt is mentioned in the text, 
QF6016 is not in the FRA-timetable. (Time is UTC, or what my 
computer things about the time :-))

Best regards, Andreas
