Hi,
I was just looking at flight checker and noticed that G-VROC -Mustang Sally - is operating on the VS7 LHR to LAX route. Have never seen a 747 on the lax route is this permanent or just a one off?

I fly on Wed 15. At the moment when I view the seatmap it still shows Airbus.
Hope it changes, would be nice to fly a 747 for the first time :)

Will the 747 be doing any of the VS7/8 routes during August or is it just July?

You might be able to work it out from the flight schedules in the tool box but VS does not formally release details of the actual plane that undertakes a particular route in advance.

Intrestingly it looks like a 747 will be operating the VS7 from 25th March 2012 onwards. Not sure how long for as flights are currently only being sold up until 18/5/12 but every date I look at between 25/3 & 18/5 seems to be a 747.
