Title: QFA Dallas to Sydney
Post by: cptbrw on May 16, 2011, 07:10:39 PM
Quantas begins longest 747 route ever from Dallas to Sydney.

Listened to the DFW archives for the arrival and, other than a "Welcome to Texxxxxas" from approach it was all routine.

Looks like Qantas might take a closer look at their plan after a flight had to divert for fuel on the Dallas to Sydney leg.
