"Qantas, which has grounded a Tokyo-bound jet at the last minute so it can change a faulty part."

What do these idiots who write these articles want. Would they prefer these extremely high tech, million part machines fly without being 100%. It's not your company car you know, slightly more complicated than that.
Morons.


For what it's worth, if I was on a plane that was in a real emergency where survival looked slim there is no other airline in the world I would want to be on than QF.

This man speaketh the truth!

Comments are a bit of an interesting read, some are actually believing this tripe http://www.news.com.au/comments/0,23...014090,00.html , but their are quite a few who realise it for what it is

Re some of the garbage I have seen in the press in recent days.....

Qantas would have a strong case for libelous and defamatory statements made against the airline, ( i.e statements that are either completely false OR convey a misleading notion )

I am glad there haven't been many go-arounds

Robert, I am not sure much of the stories have been INTENTIONALLY misleading, more bad journalism. I think the word "sensationalized" would be more accurate than false, misleading or otherwise.
