      Aquatic Mullet
      Deck it out with a pool, some first class seats and a roller coaster and charge $10,000 dollars from Melbourne to Sydney
      That’ll make money right

    Only $5000 per month to keep them airworthy each? That is literally nothing compared to their value.

    • @p4m209
      @p4m209 3 года назад +1

      Ok $5000 per month per plane right
      So for some airlines that’s hundreds of planes at $5000 a month or in total, $500,000 a month
      And then it’s been going on for 10ish months now so that’s already $5,000,000
      Then take all the money that they still need to pay and the money they aren’t getting and all other expenses
      It’s a fair bit for them

      In the case of the 4 SIA A380's on Sunday plus 2 the 2 Scoot A320's that also arrived, they later flew a Boeing 777-300ER (9V-SWM) on its return flight from Sydney to Singapore (SQ212) via ASP to collect the crews. They did the same thing 3 weeks ago on 5 April -when 3 Boeing 777-200's and 2 Scoot 320's arrived on the one day with the crew being picked up by SIA Boeing 777-300ER 9V-SYL from Sydney excepting that flight returned to Sinapore via Darwin but still operating as SQ212

    I wonder how bad a plane would smell after being closed up for months with no airflow. Wanna let that baby air out before taking on passengers.
