It seems an all too familiar headline, Qantas this, Qantas that. And you know what, I get it. Their run of late has been as good as Australia's effort v England in test cricket.

But tonight, not Etijihad, not Virgin, not Onestar, not GoCat no, its Qantas. Qantas employees, Australian's, are flying to Egypt to rescue stranded Australians. The same thing happened after the Bali bombings, the Mumbai attacks and the uprising is Bangkok.

But where is the positive media? Where is the support? Where is the good old Aussie Aussie Aussie call!?
To all the Qantas crew involved, well done!

Yep, and they are all doing it in their own time and the white rat is supplying the aircraft and associated fuel and other items for free.

Your dreamin son, how much is this going to cost the taxpayer, having the least efficient arm of QF carrying out the exercise.
