Help with seat checker

Could some of you experts please help this novice. I have looked at the Sabre? seat checking tool for our flight VS076 MCO/MAN on 18 Sep and this is what it shows:

[1] MCO MAN 18/1815 19/0725 VS76 D0 W4 S7 K0 Y7 B7 L7 M7 Q0 X0 N0 [742]
[JOURNEY TIME 490 MIN.]
-------------------- SEPARATOR ------------------------------------------------------------
[2] MCO MAN 18/1815 19/0725 SQ2576 Y4 B0 M0 W0 Q0 N0 V0 E0 [747]
[JOURNEY TIME 490 MIN.]

Obviously I got quite excited when I saw [747] until I realised the flight number was SQ2576.

As I say, I am but a mere novice but doesn't SQ indicate Singapore Airlines? With the same flight times and a similar flight number (last two digits same), this looks like a code share but with Singapore??? And if so, how come the different equipment to the VS flight? BTW there is no equivalent SQ flight for the outgoing (VS075) on Sep 4th.

Sorry if that is too many questions and the answer is probably staring me in the face if I could understand what I was looking at.

Any help would be very gratefully received.

Singapore dont fly Florida but do codeshare with VS on some routes

The flight will be the same as the VS076 im afraid so will most likely be the same 742

maybe its an old flight number I dont recall SQ codesharing on this route..

I'll add to this thread if I find anything..
