Boeing 737-800 ZK-ZQE exits Jetconnect fleet

Boeing 737-838 (WL) ZK-ZQE "William Pickering" has exited the Jetconnect fleet flying its final service under ZK markings as QF120 from Auckland to Brisbane 10 May 2018. It was subsequently removed from the ZK register the same day. 

Presumably it will take up the Australian registration it was allocated but not taken up, VH-VZJ. 
It arrived in Melbourne at the conclusion of its delivery flight on 17 February 2011 registered as ZK-ZQE and then positioned to Auckland three days later. Its first revenue service was flown 21 February 2011 as QF132 from Auckland to Melbourne.
