Go back to the original post. The question was
How can V Australia fly from Australia to SA in 777's without violating ETOPS?
Whereupon you proceeded to impress everyone with your grasp of EDTO operations and Great Circle tracking.
I merely pointed out that there was nothing in the report that suggested great circle, and intimated that EDTO was a possibility if one stayed away from the great circle. I am sorry if that point was lost on you.
I am really impressed with your grasp of the EDTO concept, pity you are not that flash at understanding written communications.
