Should have gone Boeing. Should have gone GE.


You might be right as far as should've gone GE goes.


Another Roller engine problem. This time on VH-OJD on QF6 saw another air return to Singapore last night.


Sometimes it takes a while but, the reprocussions of cost-cutting to the bone may now be coming to the surface.



Awful lot of coincidences occuring with Qantas over the last five years or so. Especially since the closure of Sydney Heavy Maintenance, the increase in Heavy off-shoring and the closure of component overhaul and engine overhaul facilities.
