I think more importantly some boys from Sydney Base will get a few days in SFO to repair this aircraft.
Nice to do something different to keep the job interesting. Just hope the boss gives them a day or 2 RnR before returning home.
But make sure the @sshole managers in Sydney don't make you sign a contract for the away from home conditions.
Is it just me or since QF shut down their engine overhaul shop these type of dramas seem to be a bit more common.
