"We're working on a 50T at the mo'..."

Don't forget to get that jack under the nose leg. Seems the current problem trend is with the nose gear. I guess the G/E's won't be playing with the switches and levers, they'll be watching you load....
Ours have a habit of jacking up the nose to change a wheel during the offload and causing the c/g alarm to trip off the loading sytem!

As for SQ, we're planning to get around them by using their aircraft as the sh1t sweeper and putting the cars on the other two chartered aircraft. SQ do seem to want the business and more besides. They've bid for two flights of the next three-flight rotation (no aircraft available for the 3rd) and because of the floating limitation we would now need four aircraft. The bosses have now gone into a flat spin, we're getting our a55es chewed for not planning properly(!) and I bet SQ have an aircraft for flt four!

Figures, I guess...
