Could the Townsville refueller ask the Mildura refueller how much was left in the tanks?
600kg's apparently..... dryer than a nuns .......


It would have been interesting to have heard when they called Pan Pan for the fuel emergency. I would imagine the frequency lit up with activity shortly after!


Am I correct in my understanding that Virgin pilots aren't trained to use auto-land and company policy says it can't be used? Unless perhaps they had training from a previous employer...
