I dunno about the rest of you guys but I am fast tiring of the media's reporting of relatively standard engineering incidents. ie: QF delaminated side windshield......(as many would know this is ABSOLUTELY a NON event)
Really, a crack / delamination inflight a non event? Are you joking?
Perhaps you should experience one before declaring it a non-event.
I have no problem with any non-normal event being reported as long as it's factual. The problem is that no-one within the airlines with a hint of knowledge is allowed to talk to the media. The only airline people who speak to the media are the
PR spin-doctors who come out with worse one-liners than the media. Me thinks a 5min conversation with a Pilot or Engineer at the time of an event would reduce the chaff that gets reported.
