Default Re: Another Qantas flight goes wrong...

I don't think the number of defects in relation to the number of flights has increased but we now have a media that just loves knocking anyone they can just for a story. mechanical faults are a fact of life be it aircraft trains trucks or any form of transport, the important thing is not the defects it is how the are handled. qantas still has the best record in the world ( no passenger fatalities from crash or mechanical defect) a record imposible to better.
Being late is better than not getting there at all and as I see it qantas have done things that may cause inconvenience but have done so in the interest of public safety. maybe it's time to get behind our national airline instead of constantly knocking it
