No I am not a pilot but do on the rare occassion have to fly QANTAS out of nessity when I cannot fly on a five star airline. I cannot think of another airline who would fill up a twenty-two year old 747-300 and expect it to cross the Pacific with so many known problems. As one of the hostesses told me she hated flying on this aircraft as it was always breaking down. I know Smithy was able to do it in a Focker monoplane and was wondering if QANTAS was thinking of getting the "Southern Cross" out of it's glass case from Brisbane airport and pressing it back into service. How many wings does a plane need to be able to FLY??????
what the ****
