Thumbs down No great Press Mania here -why ?

B.Souza
You're probably unaware of the huge Press Mania over anything that happens to the "Cheapies " tech problems ?

The Press were baying like hounds ! They wrote lots-all about "all the passengers were praying " " because we thought we were about to die ", "the aircraft was twisting & turning & shaking "

On the SAA turn-back , somehow the Press hounds were missing & no "last moment terrifying ordeals" have so far been published ! Also as it probably was not deemed sensational enough , it only was worth a small headline with very short text.

Maybe they were chained in their kennels by the head-kennel keepers ? !
