It's nothing that they didn't expect. They actually were prepared for it, and so already had a team of engineers working on the problem but they still had to delay it. |

its no different than when you're sitting on the tarmac ready to go and you hear an announcement, "ladies and gentlemen, this is your cap't speaking....we have an "unexpected delay" with some maintenance...we should be up in the air shortly" :nervous: |

i just think its pretty silly of them to bitch about a stupid uav, especially since it has not been proven yet, that the uav did not violate the Russian airspace. because honestly i dont think the russian military would send over a mig to engage a uav just for the fun of it. | Maybe because you are Russian its hard to believe?
I am sure Georgia has proof that they were in Georgia, or else they would not show this to everyone. And stupid UAV? those things are very expensive, plus its an attack on their country, they are not blowing anything out of proportion. |

I'm flying with the Airbus A380 from Singapore to London in late June and on my way back from Singapore to Sydney in early August.
Really looking forward to it, though I just hope they don't get grounded again. That would me. At least I get two chances to check the beast out :D |

Yea will do, though that brings up an interesting point. Are you actually allowed to take pictures on an airplane?
Can't say I've ever seen it done before, and I've flown A LOT. |
