For any Catholics out there, Loxie seems to be implying that the Pope has no teeth, and that may well be the case before Father Bob's finished with him.

"The airline's chief executive, Alan Joyce, said the tickets, valued at $20 million, were Qantas's way of saying "we are sorry".
Qantas also will offer a bonus to all Frequent Flyer members, though Mr Joyce says the airline has not finalised exact details.
The flights giveaway brings to $50 million the total cost of the grounding, including about $30 million for the two days that flights were cancelled."
- Melbourne Herald Sun
The giveaway is $20 million. Compare that with the weekly losses before Alan Joyce brought it to a head.
The result of a big spend now rather than sucking their thumbs is going to be that most of the disgruntled passengers will be gruntled.
You don't think that's a wise business decision?

Sorry, just a piece of chewing gum.
If you can find one that "just works" or invent one, let me know............but in the meantime we know that you don't know the chewing gum trick.........so you'll be grounded.

Fair enough answer.FH: I have ridden Japanese motorcycles all my life. That is where I got into the thinking that "Hit the button and go" makes a lot more sense than tearing down the Ducati, just to check that the rings are still ok.Once upon a time aviation was the cutting edge of technology. -
Both sides really know where they have to go. It's so much easier and less expensive to sit down and say "How are we going to get there"

I was going to say nearly the same thing. The aircraft all but flew into a safety net on this particular occasion, but of a key part of the space frame had hit one of the heavier duty parts of the ferris wheel, the there may have been frame crush. If the ferris wheel hadn't been there and the aircraft had hit the trunk or a large bough of one of the trees reported to be in the background there would have been much greater deflection.
The deceleration effect from what did bend in both structures was more likely to be what saved their lives, by preventing brain crush.
What you could say with this crash though is that in this instance the space frame may have saved some more extensive crushing on the way in.

I'd agree with you there because you are describing monococque construction where the rivets are structural components and are designed not to be the weakest point.
Cover panels are expendable, so no need to got to that expense.
