to qoute from bolger 's mouth-
"Ms Bolger said Virgin introduced extra inspections when it became aware of the problem during maintenance. She said the airline did inspections well before they were due and added that the carrier's pilots were being extra diligent when carrying out pre-flight inspections"
i just love the bull**** dribbling from her mouth - here quick give me a bucket to catch it.
-since when have virgin blue taken maintenance seriously.
-maybe if they had a decent maintenance and follow up inspection program -they wouldn't have the problems they have now.
