Neptunus Rex....
All this hoo-ha over an engine failure, albeit dramatic, which was handled extremely professionally by an experienced and well trained Qantas Crew, without any injury to the hundreds of people on board. Bravo Zulu.
I am far more concerned about the recent spate of fatal accidents in which perfectly serviceable airliners were flown into the ground, or into the sea, by supposedly experienced crews.
Yes, but wouldn't you prefer the professional boys and girls of recent historic events, like water landings, this flight, etc...... wouldn't you prefer to get more of these high caliber crews manning the perfectly servicable CFIT flights? Make some hoo-ha over the non-injury events.....maybe it will spur the few professional putzes out there.
