Wait until the troops figure out that this op in NZ is where the 787's will be going!!!!!
Five reasons why that could never happen;
1/ The 787 is a complex a/c and the JC guys haven't the skill/experience to operate them
2/ The 787 is not suited to the Tasman which is where JC operate
3/ The JC crew would want the exact same conditions as the mainline crew anyway.
4/It would be silly for QF to be the first to introduce the 787 onto the Tasman in case the customers are wary of it. Pax don't like new types.
5/ It must be illegal somehow for a company to purchase new aircraft and then just utilize them as they see fit.....surely.
I could go on but I think I've made my point.
