    Qantas Project Sunrise goes ahead, 12 new A350-1000s ordered

    They also have a pilot shortage, which won't be fixed overnight. They have deployed some initiatives in this area, but it seems to be a current constraint in their operations.

    Etihad Plane (EY461) has issue after takeoff - Melbourne

    Thanks for that, Pat; I wasn't aware of this. I presume it's up to Airlines to determine the comms protocol.

    Etihad Plane (EY461) has issue after takeoff - Melbourne

    Thanks for the update, Toaster, and welcome to our site. I am a novice here but have a few questions for our pilots.
