"Qantas recommends you keep your seat belt fastened at all times..." PS. Thanks Montague S for providing _FACTS_ on this rather than the crap coming out of the media. Last edited by chrisb; 7th October 2008 at 05:00 PM. |

Qantas Perth spokesperson has just announced two flights will depart Perth for immediately to bring passengers uninjured back to Perth. THE two flights are expected to return later tonight. The RFDS at Jandakot Airport have aircraft on standby if required.
The spokesperson also indicated the aircraft will remain in Learmonth and indicated that crew are amongst those onboard injured. Cheers GW |

Well i am glad the injuries appear to be minor (broken bones, lacerations etc) and that everyone is relatively ok. Sounds like severe CAT which has i believe been responable for several aircraft crashing due to structural failure. Will be interesting to read the final ATSB report.

Still, at least they got the manufacturer right so that is a start. Whatever happened, this again shows why you should have your seatbelt on at all times. Crew are likely to be injured because they are in the galleys or walking through the cabin. |
