I shall start firing people immediately.

The guy responsible was probably goofing off on internet forums for people with weird fetishes for airplane crashes when he should have been performing stress analysis. Head will roll...

Well, at least he wasn't goofing off on internet forums for people with weird fetishes that try to disguise themselves as being interested in plane crashes.

The rumors are true, I think it will either be the B763 or the A332 to fill the stop gap to the B787 which if they ordered tomorrow they wouldnt get for at least 4-5 yrs.

I will be able to let you know more after Tuesday, the new CEO is having a roadshow in MEL to explain the direction he is taking the airline, but from what I can already see, he is sweeping his BIG broom around in BNE, no rodent will be left to spare I dont think.

Wrong forum. Suggest you ask Rohan or, failing that, Saurabh or, failing that, Jasprheet.
