Default 7 News, Monday 7/4/08

Hey All,

Avertisement on channel 7 for tomorrow's 6pm news alluding to safety concerns within Australia's aviation community, with what looks to be a focus on the airline industry.

The story looks interesting nonetheless, and just thought I'd let everyone know to look out for it tomorrow!

I really hope they have the

Dodgy sounding/scary/creepy music
Whistleblower with their face blacked out and voice changed
The "respected industry professional" who really has no idea

I will watch it simple cause its related to aviation, but cringe at the rubbish it will probably spew out in this "90 second special report"



But thanks for heads up! Wonder if Qantas or Virgin will cop the beating or both of them

I would say QF will cop the beating but who knows. They will also trot out someone from a union and have all of this fear and terror slant on it!

Whatever they come up with, Australia is still much safer than most countries so I wouldn't worry about anything

Instead of "most" countries, I would say Australia is safer than "all" countries.

One of our major airlines will cop a bucketing...maybe 2 of them.

Nothing like a 90-second special to whip the public into a frenzy over yet another baseless claim.

Monty,

They were "complicated" issues... Not safety issues
