Qantas have some A380 desktop pictures and Mac and Windows screen savers up on their site. I suspect the hand of Photoshop though, I don’t think one’s flown over Perth, all the shots are from the same angle and I’m still pretty sure it can’t land on the current runway.

- Home Based Learning Network trade fair. I won the first door prize
- Touring the frozen eastern states. Qantas cancels two of my flights due to maintenance issues, and books me on the earlier flight. Fortunately I am able to make it to the airport on time in both cases, although one of them involves eating my dinner in the car… One flight is on a plane flown up from Melbourne to replace the original aircraft. The new plane has a loose interior panel next to my seat, which the hostie kicks into place And the reading lights don’t work. Hopefully nothing else is wrong with it!
- I’m going to try a cut for those who like such things. Apologies if this doesn’t work on the syndicated feed.

Carbon offsetting air travel
Friday, July 4th, 2008Out of curiousity I checked out how much it would cost to offset a Perth to Sydney return flight. Qantas listed it as $7.86 for 0.38 tonnes of CO2.
Really, if it’s that cheap they should automatically include it in all ticket purchases and allow people to opt out if they’d rather not pay to clean up after themselves.
