Southend To Longreach: Return Of The 707
This is a story about a great aeroplane and the dedication of the people who made her fly again. The Boeing 707-138 VHEBA first flew in 1959 and had ended its days in England where it was to be scrapped. After the most complex restoration of a classic airliner ever undertaken, in December 2006 Qantas’ very first jet airliner flew into Sydney after a 14,382 nautical mile flight from Southend, England.
