Qantas bashing has become a media past time in the last 10 years.

A Qantas aircraft can be delayed and it will get front page news,
even though every other airline has more delays. Go figure.

Yes, they cocked up on the 747 Landing overun a few years back,
had a few unexplained flight problems and the 2 big one's mentioned
above but they still got the aircraft on the ground in one piece as I have
said before.

And it seems that the flight crew had a lot to do with that being the case.
But they / the media don't acknowledge that.
