Qantas new turnback incident due to birdstrike

Irresponsible newspaper journalists should be re-titled sensationalists

Irresponsible newspaper journalists should be re-titled sensationalists
Give them one story and it escalates to ten – “passenger picks nose on flight causing flight to be diverted”……..
It’s not just the airline/aircraft industry that gets it though.
The auto manufacturers have just recovered from severe bashings too.
Toyota – brakes, floor mats, probably ashtrays and maybe even wheel embelishers if it makes a sensational story.
Facts, evidence and logic simply don’t make good reading, sadly ‘crap’ does though.

It makes a mess of the birds too:D:D
Seriously, it always annoys me that once an airline has a serious incident every minor incident for about a month after gets headline reports.
“Ash tray full on Qantas aircraft, stocks fall”
“Qantas aircraft delayed by fog, Nothing to do with our maintenance, say management”

Even Ft journalists write sensation …. Some of us know better I guess

Hi Cking
Even supposedly responsible FT journalists write sensation.
It rocks the stock market, it makes traders money, and so it goes – the money merry-go-around.
Some of us thankfully know better.
Researchers, engineers and good flight crew always overcome all these malicious statements.
Birdstrike can cause havoc to many jet engines (civil or miliary).

I hate to do this but……

Or was the first thing out of their mouths “It wasn’t anything to do with our maintenance”

Has anyone blamed this on Airbus and/or Rolls-Royce yet? :diablo:
