Qantas QF32 flight – from the cockpit (+pics)!

Great interview here with one of the flight crew (Senior Check Captain) on QF32 including pictures of the flight deck + MFD displays

Interesting they tried replicating the system failures in the sim – but couldn’t!

Thank you for this – it’s a very informative report

The one question I ponder on is “would it have been the same with a standard two person flight crew on board rather than the experienced five they had on this occasion?”

All praise to the entire crew flight and cabin for bringing that aircraft safely back with all passengers safe.

Fascinating. I think the crew did a great job.
