VH-TJZ - Sydney - arrived as QF752 from Adelaide 29 October.

VH-OGE - It was flying around the day Qantas was grounded.

Anyone know where OGE is please?

VH-QPH - Singapore - arrived as QF81 from Adelaide 29 October.
VH-OGE - Brisbane - arrived as QF512 from Sydney 29 October.

Why do people keep going on about AJ working at Ryanair?

AJ worked for Aer Lingus.

Particularly in a safety critical industry like aviation... without wanting to quote AJ, the last thing this country needs is distracted pilots flying around, or distracted engineers working on aircraft.

DJ9502 should be the first ever VA-operated domestic flight and perhaps the first ever B777 Australian domestic flight (where not an international tag-on). Seats on sale for $109 each too!

I like the Alan Joyce of LA and twitter fame, getting all the wrong tweet

maybe Virgin should bring him out as publicity stunt

Could not resist, used my Velocity points for a very quick trip to SYD and back.

When I went to check in, it allowed to choose any seat in either Business, Premium or Economy. I chose 2K, so hoping this wont change.

Gillard has the power to get them flying straight away but buck passed it to FWA so as to not upset her bosses at the unions.

What a joke.

Qantas is a public company, it doesn't answer to politicians it answers to its shareholder.

If, because of dodgy industrial laws in this country, it's ;eft with no other option, it has to pull the pin, ie. shut down the carrier.

First flights to leave Brisbane today are QF 51 VH-QPJ BNE - SIN and QF 974 VH-VZS BNE-TSV.

Cheers

Michael
