willedoo Posted May 15, 2018 Share Posted May 15, 2018 At first glance, they look very similar to a Qantas tail. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cooperplace Posted May 15, 2018 Share Posted May 15, 2018 At first glance, they look very similar to a Qantas tail. I'm not sure of your point: similar before or after the chop? Shirley he didn't hate Qantas inflight service so much that he sought revenge against an airframe? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Litespeed Posted May 15, 2018 Share Posted May 15, 2018 Oh the humanity, all those poor passengers worried about the tail about to explode from all the fuel in it...........as fireman rushed to cool it. Great reporting yet again. As for the incident, dumb parking and even dumber taxiing from the A330. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RV6JOY Posted May 19, 2018 Share Posted May 19, 2018 Well the APU in the tail must be getting fuel from somewhere! Perhaps that why it was being spayed? So maybe they aren't so dumb? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Litespeed Posted May 19, 2018 Share Posted May 19, 2018 The apu is a long way below that point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
