RE: Jal’s proposed new colour scheme.
Personally I like it, Kab yours is a little too dull for my liking, maybe we should have ELAL do something similar, say a blue Cheat line down the side of the plane with a portion of the star of David displayed on the tail.

RE: Something to boil your blood!
Ok I’m going to say one last thing and be done with it, cause I’ve had the worst week ever.
Monster, if you were a true Aussie, then your only dream would be to fly for Qantas, not preaching them here to we chosen few who know better. Besides, Qantas have now admitted to it and are making retrubutions to those who they tried to scam, that to was on the news. After the week on Qanta’s stocks and how far they fell, do you really think that they’d stay silent for long? Investors have pulled their money out due to more sketchy reports about wrong doings from QAL.
QAL are on a down turn now and with any luck those responcible will be ousted and we’ll have our faith restored in this once proud airline. I tell you, Smithy would be turning in his grave if he knew this smeg was going on.
Monster, we know how much you love your job, please, don’t try and tell us it’s all good when we know first hand about the politics of the airline industry, it won’t wash mate.
And it does seem like you are trying to dig at me, for what reason I know not, but anyway. Just as I said, I saw it on the news, thus I reported it on the boards.

RE: RE%3A What kind of aircraft does the head use%3F
What Monster forgot was that the PM of our little Island down here also uses the Dassult 900D’s which are soon to be replaced by the Challenger jets. He also uses the B707’s for some trips, but now he maily uses the BBJ’s or 900’s

RE: Something to boil your blood!
Mate I’m just reporting what comes on the news down here, so don’t shot me ok.

RE: New Pic
That’s the one that was used in the Ace of Aces movie which was it, 3 or 4, the one where they fly modified WWII planes with nice new toys in them. IIRC Louis Gossit Jnr’s character flew that one.

RE: Something to boil your blood!
Monster, Mate I appreciate that you have friends in certain places, but this news was on the news here, and one person who wasn’t able to pay for the flight was approached by thew media as to why he couldn’t go and get his son, that’s how the story got out.
Your Qantas buddy might not like the fact and has been ordered not to comment about it, or may not even know about it, but I saw it on four channels worth of news and no one is happy about it, besides Qantas has suffered from it, since the story got out, Qantas share prices have plumeted, from $4.65 down to $3.82 current rate, you can’t tell me we don’t know what is going on.

RE: New Picture
Actually mate, it’s on of three now flying, and another one is soon to join them, all of the Zeke’s are fully restored from parts found in various places around the world, three were used in PH with the rest being the T-6 copies, or digitally added, I read the full story about it some time ago in a Flypast mag (Or was it Flight Path, I’ll have to check on that).
Anyway yes it was in accurate in the movie, they were flown in those colours sadly, yet the light grey was the colour of the day for IJN, in fact these machines were not of the IJN, but actually the IJA, but the signifigance of adding them was thought to be a powerfull reminder/message. Trust Hollywood to stuff it up.

RE: new pic
Any pics of the CA-15 versoin of the Mustang?

RE: Avenger pic
Am I right about it being a CoD plane?
Another thing, are there any “Tarpon’S” still around? These were the modifided Avengers used by the RN FAA as bombers not Torpedo bombers.

America and the UK are also backing Australia in a call for the UN to place a ban on JI as a group, but officials in Indonesia are simply denying that the group exisit in their country.
One Ex-TNI/AU (Indonesian Air Force) person has admitted to helpping assemble the bomb, and has subsequently been placed under arrest.
Growning concerns over the security of the site and increasing restrictions to the morge are now starting to cause problems for the relatives who are still looking for their loved ones. All travel by Australian nationals is still restricted.
Qantas are now facing law suite over their involvement in penny pinching, with familly members having to pay upto and over $3300 for a ticket to fly into Bali on mercy missions, a normal ticket doesn’t cost more than $800 return, but Qantas are claiming that their insurence is pushing up the price of the tickets. An investigation is now underway by the consumer industry.
