SIDS N STARS, welcome to the wind up

Sorry to hear our newly re-fitted interior has been destroyed already.

Regarding the IFE, I am assuming you were travelling between SYD-CBR. How would mainline or the real q-link handle the IFE on a 25 minute sector?

Some one also mentioned the temperatures QF used to predict the performance of the 717. I am told the figures used were yearly mean temperatures (mean max in the hottest month of January 28.5 deg). Which would indicate to the QF performance guys that there would be no restrictions even with 18.5k engines. Obviously an overly simplistic approach you could say.
