"A 1 hour turnround for an A380, operating into an airport never before used, with absolute pressure due to a medical emergency- when you think about it that was a hell of a good performance on behalf of the qantas crew and airport staff, ATC and certainly the emergency services. Having been the subject of a similar experience myself some years ago (artery blockage resulting in a pan pan priority landing on an asian carrier into HKG- trust me the experience was not pleasant and not organised) I'm glad the person involved received such good care by the people involved."

Are you for real?
What's the big deal here for you?
What do you think professional airline pilots get paid for?
