yeah mc50 very funny
Things do happen at other airlines as evidenced by the aviation herald site.
Qantas is one of those love hate things we have in OZ.
Qantas dont officially trade on the good safety record but since Rain man the media just launch into everything little thing as if it only ever happens at the rat.
The batch of failures glitches hiccups etc are not a good.
Is the engine failure issue a trend? One is an isolated incident.More than one could indicate a trend depending the area of failure the hours on wing, cycles etc etc.
But in the media and public eye it = a trend without doubt.
