Beerlover,
Virgin intends to introduce RNP approaches, and is pointing training in that direction already, but for now we're happy for QF to shake some of the bigs out of the procedures and equipment with their 738s.
Gentlemen, the discussion is not to "ban" circling approaches; which incidentally have been documented as several times the CFIT risk of any other maneuvers/phases of flight; but that one operator does not support their aircraft doing them when an alternative is available.
