VH-OBJ is a standard B747-438. VH-OEJ is a B747-438ER, so it's newer than OBJ. They switched the paint scheme on OBJ back to regular Qantas colors. I guess they wanted the paint scheme on a newer and better aircraft, even though they could have saved some money by leaving the aircraft alone....

VH-OEJ, what a gorgeous paint job, on one of the most gorgeous jetliners currently flying, the Boeing 747-400ER.

Funny story about that... The Wunula Dreaming aircraft is the one that they use for the "Oshkosh Express" fro Australia to Oshkosh for the annual EAA convention. I was interviewing the aircraft Captain and EAA President Tom Poberezny planeside when they arrived at Oshkosh a couple of years ago.
As a joke Tom commented to the Captain that his 10 y.o. daughter had designed the paint scheme. "Just as well", commented the Captain, "If it had been my daughter, I would have spanked her!"
