so hence the PTY launch is on hold...oops...probably the same thing will hold up the direct AKL. Maybe if the left hand talked to the right hand? hahah!
Heard a similar story, something along the lines of "hey commercial, whats this PTY flight all about?"
"Yeah Ops, its gonna be great, the worlds longest flight!"
"But commercial, we cant do it"
"Yes we can (jabbing and pointing at the 200LR brochure with specs)"
"Um commercial, yes thats all well and good, but we cant do it"
"Yes we can"
"No we can't"
"Yes we can!"
"no we can't"
"Ok Mr negative Ops, why not?"
"because Mr Blue sky thinking commercial, our 777-200LR's don't have AUX tanks in them so don't have the range, thats why"
"What?"
"You heard me, no tanks no PTY"
"What kind of stupid idiots decided to remove the AUX tanks?"
"You guys commercial, you told us to take them out"
"Don't worry Ops, we wont blame you, we'll blame Boeing or maybe those negative pilots on PPrune for ruining our recruiting plans, would you like a Latte'? Costa gives Platinum discount here"
