Cognitive dissonance? On a thread where you've constantly bagged QF's approach to this route and lambasted them over their 'spin' of the issue you're getting uppity because someone points out a flaw in your numbers?
Trust but verify has always been the mantra in aviation. I've always been an advocate of the "it's not assured until the first aeroplane in mainline couloirs and crewed by mainline pilots pulls away from the terminal on the first revenue service" approach to management. For those employed by their respective airlines, the only game in town is to trust their respective managements make the right calls. Then again it's easier to trust this call than the pie in the sky announcement that was Red Q.
