F.E.D. Agreed - SM seems to use all of Shell's Airbus and Boeing experience in these forums? Can't rememeber how many they operate now...
I would, however, like to point out that A330's are not VC-10s or Tristars, nor are they hercs , Phantoms, Buccs, Vics or anything else that you used to use for AAR ops.
They are unlikly to swerve around like the aformentioned because they aren't the same. A330s have computers that may prevent that sort of stressful flying. the A330s will require NEW ops and "prodding" techniques and you may not even have the option of doing a "quick 120" and shouting Bingo! for whatever reason.
Just because its supposed to sing the same song doesn't necessarily mean it will do the notes in the right order.
...My apologies to Eric Morecambe.
