So you need a new fleet Leigh?
I don’t know if this is a bit of a thread wandering post , but it is to me highly amusing. Remember the last 787 delivery , the one with the 100 year anniversary logo? Well, it has a hydraulic problem that needs the aircraft to be jacked for gear swings. Qantas don’t have those jacks they had to bring them from Air New Zealand. I’m told it needed a lot of complete gear cycles however they are limited in the number that can be completed each day. It’s been on the ground since the 9.12.19 causing daily cancellations.

Give Little Napoleon some time, strategic decisions with supported aircraft are not his forte, ask the Diversity Managers at Qantas and they won't know either.
