Interesting photo - Q A380, water in aisle
Don't normally post minor things but saw this photo in the Age of the LA Qantas A380 that turned back after a waterpipe burst.
Looks like a lot of water flowing down the aisle.

Seriously, with that much water running down the aisle and into the economy deck below, how can Qantas have the balls to say

These A380's seems to have a high level of odd failures......
There were no safety of flight concerns with the water leak, however the Captain decided to return to LA in the interests of passenger comfort.

short flights long nights
Blue Sky beat me to it, but I'm sure Alan does not need any LAMEs to fix this, as all these new aircraft fix themselves,

I didn't realize the water also flowed from the ceiling onto those on the lower level.
That makes it worse than I first thought.

They aren't quite that bad (the camera seems to add a Green tinge to the photo) but they aren't that nice a colour either !

In other news Qantas sends passengers a bill for the extra amenity of a waterfall and stream on their flight. Touts new levels of passenger comfort Qantas spokesman trumpets Qantas's world class innovation and pushing the boundaries in customer satisfaction. Says other Airlines will find this hard to follow.

Aside from electronics damage which could be catastrophic, especially in a bus, is there sufficient potable water carried on board that should it accumulate at the very aft (or nose) it could take it out of CofG limits?
