This story isn't really dramatized that much. I don't mind the fact they are reporting it and making a big deal out of it (it is) but what is getting at my nerves is that they find a way to relate every incident to the QF32 incident.

Today's QF 2 -now due in 27.1.11 @ 1600 into yssy , nothing quite like spending Australia day at Bangkok Airport staring at another injured flying Roo :cool:

Looks like OJJ is off to Bangkok to help return passengers to Sydney after the problems with QF2 today.

PlanePlotter: Currently overhead Dubbo at FL320 heading 308 at 442kts.

It was very dark but even Bernie P was with me & we could both see 3 engines on the port side wing. Tried for photos but I was too far unfortunately.

[Brian Wilkes]

Crap there going through engines at the moment.
Like a run out sale, must be down to a single spare now!

Thanks for this thread fellas. I arrived back in Sydney this morning on QF2 (-OJL). I saw a Qantas 744 at a remote stand at Bangkok yesterday when we transitted there and was going to post a thread asking if this was the norm.....now I know the story behind it.

[Tim Bowrey]

OJT is on decent into SYD as QF6021 now. Should be arriving about 4.45pm or so.

[Jason H]

Operating the QF1 this evening I believe.
