Title: SORRY!!
Post by: Oddball on January 20, 2008, 02:09:03 PM
ok i dont know where to put this but here it goes, i want to apologise to mike and leiafee, about a comment i put up in a thread i started about the Boeing 777 power loss. If you dont mind i want to explain my reason for saying what i did, i may not have your flying experience im only a student learning the mechanical side of aircraft engineering but from the news coverage i saw and heard everyone was ready to blame wind shear but for some reason i felt that was wrong and instead went for mechanical or electrical failure, its happened not so often on a Qantas 747 when all 4 generators failed but the flight crew regained power this was due to a water tray leaking from the forward galley onto the main bus bar, but everyone is getting ahead of themselves (including me) and second guessing what actually happened. so once again i apologise to mike, leiafee and any one else who took offence to what i had said.

I gotta go with what Rooster Cruiser said . . .
Thanks for giving this so much thought. I would say "apology accepted" if there was the need to apologize but there isn't. So don't worry about it, ok?! ;) I am happy that so many people in here actually worry about not getting into disgusting arguments like they do in other forums. Makes me happy |:)\

I wasn't offended so much as irritated at wahat I saw to yet more wild speculation flying about -- there's enough nonsense being written by the non-aviation media without us flyers adding to it! I may have been a bit brusque in expressing that irritation, so if we're dishing out apologies I'll add one too!
I'm waiting with interest for the AAIB guys to do their thing and hopefully come up with something convincing which will help avoid a repitition
