Without Newey and with the new Ford-RBR engine, I think RBR and RB might be in for a world of hurt in 2026. Even more so as they've been continuing work on the 2025 car as others have shifted to 2026.

Agreed. For many people the new system earns more SCs. But there are definitely a number who struggle with it including those previously flying: - Lite fares - Multi-leg/ connecting fares (used to be good $/SCs) - Family pooling (particularly 3+ ppl)

So under a week till the closure (and temporary lounge opening). Anyone flying 8 Dec or shortly after?

EBP featured on SydSquad tonight and confirmed without hump still. So just need a report on EBQ.

On the downside, seemingly a few more years of NP.

Nice report and great effort in the marathon. AA LAX lounge has been Flagship not First for many years which is why as Sapphire you got access. Flagships also in DFW, MIA, ORD and PHL and arguably JFK (Greenwich lounges though they split also with Soho and Chelsea for Emerald and true First)...

And not the first time this year either.. Surely their wargaming should have considered this event and how damm stupid they would look.

EBQ just returned from seven days in BNE maintenance, so like EBM it might have been fitted. Just need to wait for someone to fly on it or photograph it

In that precise situation, probably, but only on the last lap or two... But say it's max 1, Oscar 2 and Lando 6.. then Oscar isn't going to help because in the event Max bins it, runs out of fuel or gets DQd post race then Oscar would have given away the championship.

As always lots of what ifs this year as we look to the final race. Key ones for me - The Imola swap (+- 3 Oscar Lando), the Silverstone Penalty (+- 7 Oscar Lando), Spain red mist (+9 Max) Agree a double stack wouldn't have cost Lando much. And given McLaren used Hards in the short final stint...

Qantas hasn't had a lounge at BKK for over a decade. In general I don't find buying access anywhere good value, particularly in a place like BKK where food is relatively cheap. Always worth checking if AF will allow paid access i guess.

VH-EBM back from AUH.. To be determined if Wifi was installed. QPF off to AUH instead.

Post on X that 34 of 85 JQ aircraft impacted.

Yet we are still 22+ hrs from 2359 UTC time on the 29th, and seemingly JQ is already grounding aircraft.

The confusion between immediate and two days is interesting. Particularly when it's a month between the B6 incident and this directive, and possibly even longer since the problematic update was rolled out. Obviously you need a high level of conservatism with aircraft safety, but this seems to...
