My information is that the SQ212 incident was a security scare when a bag was discovered onboard that did not belong to any of the passengers - I assume that it must have been discovered in the cabin - no further details have been given.

Did VH-OEJ operate the replacement? 9 news showed it taking off, but that could have been for another flight. Interesting that OEJ sports what looks like a grey nose cone.

Thanks Jason. They got something right - ABC news said 'this aircraft' with their footage which was a Rolls Royce powered 747.

Well in that case I want to report that on my QF764 (a B737-800) today they ran out of beer. And since we had to hold over CULIN for almost 30mins due Syd traffic it had caused a serious disruption onboard and thus jeopardised the safety of the flight.
