'The End' - closing with a view of the F'E's panel. How appropriate. The APU's controls are located here and if an aircraft were to be really shut down to Battery Off, this panel is where one would finish up. Thank you for this.
Thank you for posting these! I actually flew to SYD from BNE on TN in early January 1988. I cannot remember date or flight number. Nice to think it *might* have been the same flight!
I remember flying from BNE to SYD on the A300 in early 1981, we were on Standby from Bris and the Airbus came in and we were offered and accepted the seats, by the way the Air fare from Bne to Syd in those days was about $26.00 .
@@saulculpa9496 the jump seats were awesome years back. My dad worked for TAA then Qantas when they did the merge and I was lucky enough to fly in the cockpit many times. Usually Sydney to Brisbane. Then two other planes to Noosa late 70's.
All competency based pilots ,no identity politics in choosing pilots for good reason,ie you want to survive the flight ,not careing to be a vertue signalling dead person

So much nicer than the flying experience today!

About $60 return rings a bell.
Not $26 way more expensive. I paid that Mel to Canberra in 1973. It may have been some kind of special fare.
Great videos... Uploader, were you one of these crewmembers?
I was a passenger - in the days when you could do this.

The tech looks out dated now... my guess the current tech still does the same job though... 🤔
