    Default qantas Plane Incident (new cargo dispatch system)

    So what about that new system of cargo retrieval on Qantas planes hey

    Instead of offloading all your cargo on the tarmac they blow the cargo doors off the plane before it lands.. Talk about clever?




    But seriously is this what happens when you cut back on maintenance and do things on the cheap?

    But do you think this was caused by cutting corners on maintenance

    Probably, but will Qantas admit it?

    I think they would only admit it if someone had died.....

    But just shows cutting corners on safety is a bad idea

    At the end of Bob's show tonight they said on the news that another Qantas plane flight 692 leaving Adelaide had to turn back over Murray Bridge because an undercarraige door was still open and would not close

    An aicraft taking off with it's undercarriage doors closed would be an interesting sight Crispy! The doors have to be open to have the wheels down, and are closed after takeoff once the undercarriage has retracted.

    It was interesting that one passenger said that since they moved there maintenance over sea's, There has been a list of problems, So cutting corners and trying to save money could cost lives, I think they are lucky at the moment, Heed the Warning signs I say..
