Quantas Straps an Extra Engine to A Boeing 747 for transport

This Qantas Boeing 747 checked some excess baggage for a recent flight - a spare engine strapped to the wing.   The airline had to transport an engine to Johannesburg, South Africa.  The engine was not used during the flight and was only there for the ride.
