Bobbo_SA Posted June 3, 2016 Share On our(SAA) airbus 340s there is a "room" below floor level. Its basically a cargo container that sits in the AFT cargo compartment. Has about 6 to 8 beds in it. That's the one the flight attendants use. Then right behind the cockpit is another room the has a bunk bed for the flight crew. The upper bunk can tilt and then becomes a back rest and is then 2 seats. On the BA A380 the emergency exit from the "pod" is in front of seat 25D, 24D has no seat which means 25D has much more leg room.

Tumbleweed Posted June 3, 2016 Share On the BA A380 the emergency exit from the "pod" is in front of seat 25D, 24D has no seat which means 25D has much more leg room. The Boeing 747-400 used to have a "secret" doorway to the drew quarters at the back. Kooked quite cosy. LWB, is the A340's a removal container? Years ago, we had a Qantas 747-200 come in, and it had a weird config in that the catering was loaded in containers, accessed by a lift. At that stage we'd never catered a plane like that. Took some elbow grease to get it loaded! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Readsalot Posted June 3, 2016 Share After every flight, Qantas Airlines pilots fill out a form called a gripe sheet, which conveys to the mechanics problems encountered with the aircraft during the flight that need repair or correction. The mechanics read and correct the problem, and then respond in writing on the lower half of the form what remedial action was taken, and the pilot reviews the gripe sheets before the next flight. Never let it be said that ground crews and engineers lack a sense of humor. Here are some supposedly actual logged maintenance complaints and problems as submitted by Qantas pilots and the solution as recorded by Qantas maintenance engineers. By the way, Qantas is the only major airline that has never had an accident. (P = The problem logged by the pilot.)(S = The solution and action taken by the engineers.) P: Left inside main tyre almost needs replacement.S: Almost replaced left inside main tyre. P: Test flight OK, except auto-land very rough.S: Auto-land not installed on this aircraft. P: Something loose in cockpit.S: Something tightened in cockpit. P: Dead bugs on windshield.S: Live bugs on backorder. P: Autopilot in altitude-hold mode produces a 200 feet per minute descent.S: Cannot reproduce problem on ground. P: Evidence of leak on right main landing gear.S: Evidence removed. P: DME volume unbelievably loud.S: DME volume set to more believable level. P: Friction locks cause throttle levers to stick.S: That's what they're there for. P: IFF inoperative.S: IFF always inoperative in OFF mode. P: Suspected crack in windshield.S: Suspect you're right. P: Number 3 engine missing.S: Engine found on right wing after brief search. P: Aircraft handles funny.S: Aircraft warned to straighten up, fly right, and be serious.P: Target radar hums.S: Reprogrammed target radar with lyrics. P: Mouse in cockpit.S: Cat installed. P: Noise coming from under instrument panel. Sounds like a midget pounding on something with a hammer.S: Took hammer away from midget.
