SIA to bring back nonstop US services by 2018 with ultra long range A350-900

Random says:
These ultra long-range aircraft from both manufacturers may just wrest some of geographic advantage away from intermediate Asian and Middle-Eastern locations and their resident airlines.
It is always going to be hard for carriers in Australia, NZ and even Singapore (in the case of US flights), to overcome the disadvantage of being at the terminus of long routes with little through traffic unless non-stop services become a reality supported by suitable aircraft.

When do we get international flights from “The Spirit of Australia”?

CASA issues warning on drones in bushfire areas

BDT says:
Is there such a technology as jamming for commercial radio-controlled drones that could be used by aerial firebombers?

Jetgo headed to Melbourne Avalon

Anthony says:
When Dubbo had Rex Saab 340, QantasLink Q200 and Airlink B1900D and Navajo services only, security screening was not required, just optional under CASA requirements.

Q400 services, CASA required screening to be implemented, much to the dismay of REX, due to costs, etc.
If the aircraft weighs over a certain tonne, (not seats, size, etc…), screening must be in place, post 9/11.

Matt says:
Go for it Jetgo! Our family is looking forward to flying with you in the not too distant future.

Qantas’s Joyce named airline CEO of the year

Matt says:
Thankfully only 5,000 jobs were lost as it was not looking too good for Qantas staff nor the airline.

Obviously something has gone right – a perfect turnaround for all.

Ben says:

John says:
What a load of crap.
It’s like everyone has mysteriously forgotten the events of the past few years.

G4george says:
One of the few good things out of the Hawke/Keating era, selling Qantas before the unions destroyed it.

John says:
I wonder if any of the Joyce/Qantas knockers have ever managed a company? Seems to me that when the word Qantas comes up we have all these experts come out of the woodwork.

Credit were credit is due, well done to Joyce, the board that backed his plan and the Qantas staff that backed their management and ensured the turnaround happened.
