Maybe you get a hobby? You only post anti QF tripe. Why?

In the overall scheme of things don't all QFs return to Sydney? :}

Where's the news in this?

You only post anti QF tripe. Why?You are asking the wrong person. Go start with Geoff Dixon and the beancounters who have all but destroyed a once great airline (where none of this stuff would ever have happened).

the old loose windscreen. I hate it when that happens.

apparently the pilots were getting concerned about the level of wind noise!

On a pressurised aircrcraft:

1. Secure windscreen....... seen a few of them.
2. Windscreen missing...... heard of one but never seen one.
3. Loose windscreen.......never heard of one, most likely to be bulls**t!
4. Ah wind noise....... that will be a warn window seal causing cabin air to vent out side the aircraft. It can be very noisy and can damage your hearing, but it is not a loose windscreen!
