"Looks like you owe me a pint Rainboe"
Probably why Rainboe did a runner! |
Browsing through some of the other photos from the accident referred to in post #43, I loved this one!
AirDisaster.Com: Accident Photo: Qantas QF1 (3) Not quite what the CC had in mind, I am sure. |
I took no bets! Never gamble- fools game. Not even a lottery ticket.
My superficial opinion was it was repairable- I think it accepted the Qantas 747 was equally or worse damaged and is flying now. Frankly I'm surprised it allegedly has been written off- I'm sure Airbus would have preferred a repair to avoid their production safety figures looking bad for the A340. All the same, a sad end to a fine aeroplane, but with the recent fuel price shock, probably a relief to be rid of it. |
