    I'm pretty sure that there would have been different wording used when the PIC had a chat with whoever behind closed doors :)

    Where not to park your jet at ROK.....ooops!

    Someone might have to go out and buy some Maxtrax. Any ideas of how this aircraft will be recovered? Will a crane be required?

    What cheeses me off

    What cheese me off is the Australia Post... for so many reasons but these are the ones on the top of my mind - 1. My package from ADL to SYD went ADL-SYD-MEL-PTH-SYD-delivered (not surprisingly it was late) 2. Getting a missed delivery card for packages when they are 'attempted' to be...

    What cheeses me off

    What cheeses me off? When you call a large organisation and they ask you to key into the phone your customer ID, your DOB, your FF number, CC number etc etc and then you get put into a queue. Finally a human speaks to you about your call and then has to ID you by asking you all the details that...

    Ask The Pilot

    Would any pilots here like to comment on this statement - And Jane Hrdlicka has no qualms about flying on the MAX, saying the exhaustive testing following two fatal crashes and a global grounding makes it “probably the safest aircraft in the world today.”...

    Qantas Project Sunrise goes ahead, 12 new A350-1000s ordered

    How long until you get to LTP? (Or are you already there ^_~)

    Congrats. Can I ask what is the long silver item in your photo? Looks like a tie pin to me.

    Ask The Pilot

    Just thinking about QF moving from B737s to A320s. How many pilots will need to be retrained? How long would it take for a B737 pilot to convert to an A320?

    Low Rate Reservation Cancelled By Hotel [Only Fixed after Contacting Hilton]

    From memory it wasn't a Hilton property but your terrible experience seemed similar to mine so I thought that I would vent (clearly I need therapy :) ). I hope that your situation gets sorted out for you.

    Low Rate Reservation Cancelled By Hotel [Only Fixed after Contacting Hilton]

    Hotels can be a..holes sometimes. I made a booking in April for rooms in SYD over NYE at a very good price for approx 4 nights.

    Ask The Pilot

    I just read under another topic that some B737's can't fly international because they don't have life rafts. Makes sense to me but what happen for the crew when the VA B737 had to be flown to HK for maintenance?
