QF returns to Sydney 16.02

So apparently a Qantas flight Syd to Mel returned to Sydney half way through the flight this morning because a windscreen was loose.

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?

Regards,
BH.

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!
