Only a matter of time for these porch monkeys flying in the middle of the pacific not a place for this type aircraft, limited fuel two baby engines, limited or no alternate ( Island alternate fuel for holding to hope for the best ) it will not end well.

Oh I don't know about that. That operator has been flying the 737-200 and now the 737 Classics all over the Western, Central and South Pacific since 1974 which is 44 years without an accident and crewed from the beginning by Australian pilots. Pretty good porch monkeys I would say, wouldn't you?
