I wonder if they'll look at the black box and cockpit voice recorder

LAX ; QF94 and QF 16 clash
 
Imagine the saving in fuel costs with two planes grounded:-)

Do we think they will be send some Jetstar aircraft up to rescue the stranded pax?

Ngineer 28th February 2014 09:10

Send the guys from Southwest in to fix the 744, seeing as they are all such a bunch of legends (it'll be fixed in five minutes flat).

The 380 will fix itself.

Fuel-Off 28th February 2014 09:15

I guess this will cost a few gold bits that the company apparently doesn't have. May be a naïve question, but doesn't insurance cover this sort of hiccup?

Fuel-Off :ok:

ALAEA Fed Sec 28th February 2014 09:21

Qantas self insure.

Not much point Alan buying a Lotto ticket is there.

Capt Quentin McHale 28th February 2014 10:13

it was the dodgy mexican contractors at LAX towing the aircraft at the time.... Yep, you get what you pay for!!!


McHale.

Bet they make money out of this .

Poor b@rst@ds will be crucified. Probably, only following Air Nair's LAX SOP's.

No prob, Texas Tony thinks - many more Mexicans where they came from.

Any pics?
Was it a scape or a decent nudge.
When VA's 777 backed into a hanger it cost million and aircraft was AOG for 4 or 5 days from memory.

Boeing vs Airbus-which one got max damage

Chock 1st March 2014 02:01

This seems the perfect time for AJ to give EK the LAX flts.

Okay, a little off topic, but the local handlers on the other side of the Country do a better job. :rolleyes:

This was the tail of an Air Jamaica A310 at JFKNY some years back, it was grounded for months after being towed out of a hangar. :(

That'll buff right out.

Some more pictures posted on this forum.

The 747-400 'winglet' is a remove and replace part (I believe it's actually on the MEL that you can dispatch with one missing). Trailing edge damage on the 747 may be a bit tougher to patch.

You mean CDL.
