Holy crap you guys are like a bunch under sexed middle aged woman at the Bay's boxing day sale. Settle the F%^! down!

Nobody got hurt, the aircraft was damaged and TC will settle it in time. If the pilots were to blame then the crew and some WJ management will have to face the music. End of story.

Why do you AC/WJ guys have to be at each others throats all the time? It is pathetic. The WJ guys have done their share of gloating in the past as AC faultered but I must admit there are some seriously arrogant cun%!'s spouting off from AC as the carrier appears to be pulling itself out of the nose dive that missed the ground by a hair.

The two carriers are competitors and neither is going anywhere soon. WJ and AC will grow and keep each other honest. Competition will increase for both carriers as open skies develop. There are some heavy hitters out there that if given the chance will grab market share from both carriers.

Instead of scrapping and acting like idiots why don't you respect each other and go at it together. Virgin Atlantic dragged an engine down the runway at LHR a while back and although it made the news/forums etc., mutual respect was maintained and everyone moved on. Job done.

Happy New Year
