On the money CHEER UP!!!! I am a licenced ginger beer on the 777, and have worked on many Asian/European/American operators tripplers who flog the arse out of them, and guess what? THEY DON'T BREAK!!! They just keep on going. Flight crews luv em. Meanwhile I have my intelligence insulted by QF management telling me the trippler is "OLD TECHNOLOGY". But hey what would I know, for I am just a mere bilge rat working at the coalface with 35 plus years experience (30 as a LAME) on RPT and GA aircraft. And what would all those 777 operators of "old technology" know...... they just keep on making profits!!!
