Post Quantas/BA flightdecks

Cheers to the guys on the GLA - LHR 757 and the LHR - SFO 747 for the seats on the flight deck for landing a week ago, and cheers to the guys on the Quantas 747 LAX - SYD for the visit. Much appreciated.

I owe you a pint next time your on stopover in GLA.

B.R.

Glad that the "Director" got in as the spelling police before we Antipodeans took the front gate along with the fence.

BTW, last LHR trip I actually heard a UK ATCO in the 'Director' role use the S*** word on VHF! First time ever. How stressed are things there??

G'day

Unhappy

Can I please advise all 1st Officers and Captains to be aware that a company called INTAIR may approach them with vacancies to fly a Lear Jet 60 based in Helsinki.. this is a scam, a complete rip-off.. a friend of mine is now stranded in helsinki as we speak.. the name of the two supposed employers are Georgios Constadinos and a Mr Berz.. please warn anyone else who may be approached by this company... many thanks..

Er....... humblest apologies to the antipodeans, just used to u after q, I didn`t actually think that was how it was spelt. Honest.

QANTAS is a strange name for an airline and I bet not one in a thousand ppruners know what it means.
It is an acronym and I get the impression that not so many folk know what that means.
Anyway, some of you know what it stands for so go on, tell 'em.
There's no prize by the way.

Before you do let me add that I hand painted an Airfix model of a QF 707 (when I were a lad and had better eyesight and more patience) and the really hard bit was writing "Australias Overseas Airline".

Can't wait to see their timetable for 747 services to Boulia or Normanton, after all these years.

Something like "1 flight in, no flights out". :o
