"Good grief, this is old news. I saw this about 4 months ago."Yes, but at the time, it was attributed to an Airbus flight test crew, not the customer. And nothing was said about them being Arab idiots. This is new news.

Ping for more info and pictures of that little Airbus “oopsie”. Not even AvLeak dared more than print the one picture, and there was no editorial commentary.

Although the thing is ... how do you know the crews are Arabs? Sure it’s an Arabian airline, but Abu Dhabi, heck, even counting the whole of UAE is so small that there aren’t enough qualified native flight crews. I have flown a number of times on both Emirate Airway as well as Etihed and the long hual cockpit crew (Captain + pilot + spare) on my flights have always been foreign hired hands - Brits, Aussies, Greek, Italian, the odd Russian, ... but so far no Arabs.

I missed it four months ago.
Thanks for posting it, Shield. If someone had been in first class, they'd probably be dead. What maroons the flight crew are.

I’m pretty sure I saw those pics a few months ago, but with a different story behind it.

good point - most every crew I’ve flown with in Asia has been ex-pat.

So what are we talking here, $20, $30 of Bondo and an hour on the frame machine?

It is Allah's will! Praised be his name!
Man was not meant to fly. Mohammed, praised be his name, did not have a plane so we muzzl'ems should not have planes either. Crash the planes, tool of the Jewish pigs and sons of the devil!
