Ramjagger

Surely one would think you'd employ a slightly more intelligent way of soliciting some info.
Doesnt matter really, the media would only cock it up and call the aircraft a Qantas DC8 with 830 pax or something just as ridiculous.

Besides Ramjagger do you honestly think the Singaporean authorities would jeapardise the reputation of Singapore Changi airport by letting an aircraft depart with "several explosive devices" as you quote?
If a device was found you could expect an aircraft to be towed away to a secure area and the devices neutralised before an exhaustive heavy maintenance inspection taking at least a week or so.

Did this happen Ramjagger you fool?
No.
It was delayed a whole four hours before the authorities gave the OK according to the media release I read.

And what about the crew Ramjagger?
Give them an ounce of credibility will you.

Now you know why professional aircrew hate the trash media that chooses to unnecessarily sensationaliseall aviation matters, blow everything out of proportion and then get inappropriate quotes from unqualified people (normally hysterical pax etc).
