I heard on the crew room grapevine about the A300 lay up's, speculation seems rife about the 146's but it does seem odd that reliability is being bandied around given the fact that most of these airframes are getting on for 30 years old, surely no one in the real world would expect high reliability from 30 year old airframes unless it's a heavily cosseted classic or they have somehow re-defined the laws of physics where aluminimum alloy DOESN'T try to to return to it's white powder form which doesn't seem very likely !!
Good luck TAY folks, I was hoping to join you one day as I have friends in Liege but that seems unlikely now.
