Cannot understand the logic
Big sign out there at Essendon (Melbourne) says something about Melbourne being the home of JetStar. Looks impressive! So why did the airline launch in Sydney and Newcastle? mmmm....
I also heard some engineers had decided not to work for JetStar because they were not happy that the airline wasn't doing engineering pre-flights on turnarounds.
Statistics have a funny way of playing with safety....
==============================================A reduction in safety margin isn't necessarily unsafe, it just makes the airline statistically more vulnerable. Good luck to those who gamble with statistics.

Take Care.
