Ansett's 767s were unique in they retained the three-crew cockpit (two pilots and a flight engineer) of the original design. Other buyers took advantage of Boeing's new glass cockpit to have two pilots only. VH-RME was finally converted to two-crew in 1998. In April 2001 it became one of the Ansett aircraft grounded by authorities for non-compliance, the first real sign the airline was in trouble. It re-entered service a month later but was under heavy maintenance when Ansett ceased operations in September. The work was never finished and -RME was scrapped at Melbourne in 2003.
