Noip,
It's normal for a small component of some A checks to be done in LAX.
This particular one was flown up empty for it's FULL a check to be carried out by 35 local mercenaries and the 6+ QF LAMEs....who are none to happy about it and hopefully giving 100% supervision...!!
Hmm, guess there wasn't anywhere in Asia able to carry out an A Check.......or wouldn't due to QF continually breaking contracts........
