Thread drift but some more quality reporting on a 777 worthy of a revisit!
https://youtu.be/L1JYHNX8pdo Most pilots have seen the above post by Green Dot. Do you know a couple of days later there was Southwest aircraft that had landing gear issues? The Korean's got their own back... "It looks like a Korean news agency is having some fun at KTVU’s expense. After the landing gear failure of the Southwest flight at LGA they showed this graphic with American pilot names “Captain Kent Parker Wright”, “Co-Captain Wyatt Wooden Workman”. They even went as far as making up fake names for people to interview. Flight instructor “Heywood U. Flye-Moore” and skeptical passenger “Macy Lawyers”. https://jerz.setonhill.edu/blog/2013...ilure-slothed/ |

Given his profile on the West Australian newspaper page, I doubt that is true.
https://thewest.com.au/profile/geoffrey-thomas Ignore the puffy profile. My understanding is that GT was let go from The West many years back after 7West bankrolled his wesbite with a massive loan, then after several years it was still running at a loss and 7West was in financial trouble so it demanded its money back. GT was somehow able to |

Oh to wax allegorical after a slightly boozy lunch -
The stupidist bird in the world is the seagull, to quote:-" The seagull. The worst bird on earth, and it’s not even close. Say what you will about pigeons, they at least add some practical value to the world. You can eat them. You can train them to send coded messages across enemy lines. You can keep them as pets on a rooftop, Mike Tyson–style. They’re useful scavengers. Seagulls, on the other hand, are the worst. Every boardwalk in America is ruined by their presence. All I wanted to do was eat an ice cream cone. Now I’m in the middle of a goddamn Hitchcock movie. We should nuke the seagulls. " Does Cyrus and Bain come to mind here ? And the smartest bird ? The Crow of course. Every Ozzie knows it is impossible to shoot a Crow let alone run one over on the road. The cunning buggers know to leave the carcase alone when vehicles approach to return to get nourishment at a safer time. So to take the allegory a bit further, who is the Crow in this case ? Don't know yet but all Crows are bits of darkness and love saying "Fark"em. You have been warned. Roll on liquidation time. Guess I should have a strong black coffee now to become a hyperactive drunk. Cheers I should add I have friends in Virgin, wish them well, but don't see the present pair of protagonists providing a very satisfying result. But like GT I could be wrong. |
Well GT got that one wrong!

So now it's down to a two horse race.

But he will come out now and say he knew all along Bain would be the winner.

I'm not sure about Bain being the "winner", they were the only one left :cool:

I think that part will be played by Deloitte!!!:ok:
Cyrus will still be looking for their dummy. |
Bain are probably thinking "oh ****".
|
I think....that you think......oh ****, Normanton. Might hold up that command further my friend.

The large female ain’t singing yet 😳

No she ain’t, but it is a big step in the right direction IMHO.
|
Why would Bain be thinking “oh ****”. They put 60 analysts, financiers, accountants, and lawyers onto this project for weeks. The unsecured bond holders seem to be scrambling for a better deal but looks like they were not organised enough. They ‘might’ be able to sink it with a vote at the second creditors meeting but it looks as though they will get even less out of the subsequent liquidation.

I've heard that he's actually paid nothing..... which values his input quite accurately.
I wonder why he is never critical of Qantas...... |
