You seem to tune in to the media a fair bit...

Just my opinion, but considering the recent major incidents with Qantas, I think it's fair to say that an electrical fault resulting in smoke in the cockpit is newsworthy.

Hi Trev,

Apparently it was an unaccompanied bag which had dangerous goods in it.
The a/c returned, the bag removed, and took off again a short time later.

Default VH-OEI in another fuel dump and return.

theqantassource.com is reporting that VH-OEI has now returned to JNB having dumped fuel whilst operating QF64 JNB-SYD.

Hi All,

OEI isn't having a good time at the moment.
First, the the Smoke in the Cockpit on QF17
and now this - QF64 Bird Strike on No. 2 Engine.

Did someone at QF brake a window or something.
This is a bad month for Qantas.

Stuart

The union is holding a strike for better pay and conditions for the birds.
