Ask yourself, when did you ever hear about maintenance problems at QF.
Up until a few years ago, never.
Lately, bits falling off of 767s, fuel comp softwear problems, now this and a door problem.
I find it strange that Naffy grounded the Ansett 767s after they were informed of a paper descrepancy, yet bits are falling off QF 767s and nothing like that is done. I for one consider a chunk of metal landing in my back yard far more of a saftey hazzard than a broken paper trail.
Never heard of any bits falling off TAA ,AN or EW aircraft.
As a side issue is the QF1 aircraft still flying somewhere or was it patched and flown out to storage in the desert somewhere to rot?
