So threshold passed during second statement period. Bonus points show on third statement and received...

    Oneworld Classic Flight Reward Discussion - The Definitive Thread

    The Qantas web site Multi-City booking tool can be helpful to identify possible flight options that can be used to construct a QFF OneWorld Award, but it will show flight options that may not be permitted on the specific Qantas OneWorld Award itinerary. Hence the disclaimer. But can still be...

    Oneworld Classic Flight Reward Discussion - The Definitive Thread

    There is also no requirement that the itinerary must start or end in Australia. It is purely a distance-based award. Obviously there are more QF flights operating to/from Australia, but there are still plenty of non-QF options, including AA, BA, CX, JL, MH, QR

    Qantas Early Check In at TBIT (LAX)

    And of course, if travelling HLO, on-line check-in opens 24 hours before and you can arrive at LAX and pass security anytime on the same day as travel. And if OneWorld Sapphire or Emerald, Qantas Club member or travelling Business/First class, can visit the AAdmirals Club lounge at T4 after...

    AA Revamping Million Miler

    I am still sitting on about 1.85MM. reach LTG under the earlier model based on total miles earned. Since the MM earning process changed, its been a very slow climb for me towards LTP, so unlikely to more than double my MM total in my foreseeable lifetime, but things may change for me so its...

    Former VH-TJT crashes this morning

    The linked report says "One of the four occupants perished and the aircraft was destroyed.". Very sad for the loss of live, but miraculous that three did survive.

    Proposed Social Media ban for under-16 kids

    I guess that is recognition that no self-respecting teenager wants to be seen on Facebook - that is the place where their parents and grand parents hang out!

    Ask The Pilot

    How much of the "automatics" is still available to you in a 2-engine out scenario on the 380? For example, can you do an overweight autoland with two engines out on the same wing? Or does it revert to an operating law that removes that option and you are going to be bringing it around and back...

    Roomba, Dysons, Thermomix and other household appliances

    Well, my first mixer (analogue, built from scratch in 1985) did have lots of "pots" and "pans". But these days some would consider my hobby a sound engineer - I prefer to think of myself as a very sound engineer ;)

    Roomba, Dysons, Thermomix and other household appliances

    For impressive, this is my all-time favourite to operate. Spent many hours sitting behind this beast (Midas XL8). But alas, was way waaaaay outside my budget to own. And now completely obsolete!! This pic from a theatre performance of "You're a Good Man, Charlie Brown" (2015). And if the show...

    Roomba, Dysons, Thermomix and other household appliances

    With everyone discussing their favourite mixers, I can show mine. This year I upgraded from my old mixer (18 years old but still going strong) to a new model with more modern features. 18 years ago, paid around $14K for this one (Yamaha LS9-32): And replaced it a few months back with this one...
