PPRUNE is amazing really. Just thought I would pop in to see what's new in the world and I find that tomorrow I will be wandering around the QR045 thinking, "this A330 looks a bit odd, someones nicked the winglets. Bu**er me, it's a Cripple!"
You would have thought someone would have mentioned it earlier wouldn't you? You know just to make sure there would be no handling issues.
