1
00:00:00,600 --> 00:00:04,160
Speaker 1: Already and this is the daily This is the daily

2
00:00:04,200 --> 00:00:06,920
Speaker 1: ohs oh, now it makes sense.

3
00:00:16,040 --> 00:00:18,880
Speaker 2: Good morning and welcome to the Daily OS. It's Tuesday,

4
00:00:18,920 --> 00:00:19,759
Speaker 2: the ninth of April.

5
00:00:19,880 --> 00:00:21,440
Speaker 3: I'm Zara, I'm Sam.

6
00:00:21,560 --> 00:00:25,360
Speaker 2: Airplane manufacturer Boeing has not been able to escape the

7
00:00:25,400 --> 00:00:26,360
Speaker 2: headlines recently.

8
00:00:26,480 --> 00:00:28,600
Speaker 3: We're going to shift our focus now to the latest

9
00:00:28,600 --> 00:00:33,040
Speaker 3: concerns around Boeing Aircraft. Manufacturer Boeing is investigating more problems

10
00:00:33,080 --> 00:00:33,560
Speaker 3: from Boeing.

11
00:00:33,760 --> 00:00:36,120
Speaker 4: Boeing's crisis is deepening tonight.

12
00:00:36,320 --> 00:00:39,320
Speaker 2: Over the weekend, a Boeing plane turned around after an

13
00:00:39,400 --> 00:00:42,400
Speaker 2: engine cover fell off during takeoff from the US city

14
00:00:42,440 --> 00:00:45,280
Speaker 2: of Denver. It's just the latest in a string of

15
00:00:45,360 --> 00:00:49,760
Speaker 2: recent incidents involving Boeing aircraft. In a memo last month,

16
00:00:49,840 --> 00:00:53,000
Speaker 2: the outgoing CEO said, the eyes of the world are

17
00:00:53,080 --> 00:00:56,440
Speaker 2: on us. Why we're going to explain in today's deep

18
00:00:56,480 --> 00:00:59,120
Speaker 2: dive the first Sam what's making headlines.

19
00:01:04,440 --> 00:01:08,000
Speaker 3: The Australian government has appointed a special Adviser Air Chief

20
00:01:08,080 --> 00:01:11,759
Speaker 3: Marshal Mark Binsken, to investigate Israel's response to an air

21
00:01:11,800 --> 00:01:14,840
Speaker 3: strike that killed seven aid workers in Gaza last week,

22
00:01:15,120 --> 00:01:19,119
Speaker 3: including an Australian woman. The Israeli government's own investigation into

23
00:01:19,200 --> 00:01:23,160
Speaker 3: the strikes concluded it quote should not have occurred. Yesterday,

24
00:01:23,240 --> 00:01:27,240
Speaker 3: Foreign Minister Penny Wong said Australia's Special Adviser will examine

25
00:01:27,280 --> 00:01:31,280
Speaker 3: the quote sufficiency and appropriateness of steps taken by the

26
00:01:31,319 --> 00:01:35,120
Speaker 3: Israeli government in response to the strikes, including what measures

27
00:01:35,120 --> 00:01:38,440
Speaker 3: it has adopted to prevent it from happening again. Prime

28
00:01:38,440 --> 00:01:41,240
Speaker 3: Minister Anthony Abernezi said we have made it very clear

29
00:01:41,280 --> 00:01:44,640
Speaker 3: to Israel that these deaths are utterly inexcusable and that

30
00:01:44,720 --> 00:01:47,240
Speaker 3: action is needed to ensure that such a tragedy is

31
00:01:47,280 --> 00:01:48,040
Speaker 3: never repeated.

32
00:01:49,760 --> 00:01:52,440
Speaker 2: At least ninety four people have died after a boat

33
00:01:52,520 --> 00:01:56,480
Speaker 2: sank off the coast of Mozambique. According to local officials,

34
00:01:56,480 --> 00:01:59,080
Speaker 2: the vessel was not designed to carry passengers, but was

35
00:01:59,120 --> 00:02:01,760
Speaker 2: carrying more than an hundred and thirty people when it sank.

36
00:02:02,120 --> 00:02:05,000
Speaker 2: Authority said the passengers were trying to escape a cholera

37
00:02:05,080 --> 00:02:09,680
Speaker 2: outbreak in the nearby city of Nampula. Mozambique recorded around

38
00:02:09,720 --> 00:02:12,600
Speaker 2: forty thousand cases of cholera in twenty twenty three.

39
00:02:14,320 --> 00:02:17,200
Speaker 3: The foal of Australian racehorse Winks has been sold for

40
00:02:17,320 --> 00:02:21,400
Speaker 3: a record breaking ten million dollars. Winks claimed a record

41
00:02:21,480 --> 00:02:24,720
Speaker 3: winning streak of thirty three races before she was retired

42
00:02:24,760 --> 00:02:28,240
Speaker 3: in twenty nineteen. Bidding for her eighteen month foald began

43
00:02:28,360 --> 00:02:31,440
Speaker 3: at two million dollars at an auction in Sydney. Despite

44
00:02:31,480 --> 00:02:34,799
Speaker 3: international interest, she was sold to Winks's former part owner

45
00:02:34,919 --> 00:02:35,840
Speaker 3: DeBie Kipitis.

46
00:02:37,720 --> 00:02:38,519
Speaker 4: And the good news.

47
00:02:38,680 --> 00:02:41,240
Speaker 2: The twenty twenty three to twenty four A League women's

48
00:02:41,280 --> 00:02:44,400
Speaker 2: season is set to become the most attended season of

49
00:02:44,600 --> 00:02:48,440
Speaker 2: any women's sport in Australian history. The total number of

50
00:02:48,480 --> 00:02:51,640
Speaker 2: spectators at its games is expected to reach nearly three

51
00:02:51,760 --> 00:02:55,680
Speaker 2: hundred thousand people out of this week's first elimination finals.

52
00:02:56,200 --> 00:02:57,280
Speaker 4: That's an one hundred and.

53
00:02:57,200 --> 00:03:00,840
Speaker 2: Eight percent increase compared to last season as women's soccer

54
00:03:00,880 --> 00:03:06,080
Speaker 2: continues to rise some popularity.

55
00:03:06,919 --> 00:03:09,519
Speaker 1: Hey there, I'm just popping in here. My name is

56
00:03:09,560 --> 00:03:12,679

62
00:03:27,960 --> 00:03:29,560
Speaker 1: and now back to the deep dive.

63
00:03:31,440 --> 00:03:36,400
Speaker 2: Boeing, the plane manufacturer behind many of the world's commercial flights,

64
00:03:36,520 --> 00:03:41,480
Speaker 2: is currently facing serious safety questions. Now, just this weekend,

65
00:03:41,680 --> 00:03:44,880
Speaker 2: a Boeing plane turned around after an engine cover fell

66
00:03:44,920 --> 00:03:48,040
Speaker 2: off in the US city of Denver. Now, this is

67
00:03:48,120 --> 00:03:51,280
Speaker 2: just one of many incidents that have plagued Boeing recently,

68
00:03:51,440 --> 00:03:53,000
Speaker 2: and we have to talk about it.

69
00:03:53,120 --> 00:03:55,840
Speaker 3: And I think it's because it's flying. It's something that

70
00:03:55,920 --> 00:03:57,120
Speaker 3: everyone kind.

71
00:03:56,960 --> 00:03:58,920
Speaker 4: Of can tap into getting on a plane today.

72
00:03:59,040 --> 00:04:02,440
Speaker 3: Okay, maybe this isn't the podcast episode to listen to

73
00:04:02,760 --> 00:04:05,000
Speaker 3: when you're on the plane, but let's assume we're on

74
00:04:05,040 --> 00:04:07,640
Speaker 3: the ground. I don't think that anyone's nailed how to

75
00:04:07,680 --> 00:04:11,080
Speaker 3: explain this properly. Where can we start with this story?

76
00:04:11,400 --> 00:04:14,520
Speaker 2: I think probably just by explaining the company boe And

77
00:04:14,560 --> 00:04:17,040
Speaker 2: I'd agree with you read the explainer part. I think

78
00:04:17,040 --> 00:04:19,080
Speaker 2: that this is a story that has gone on for

79
00:04:19,120 --> 00:04:21,320
Speaker 2: so long, I personally haven't been able to get a

80
00:04:21,320 --> 00:04:23,760
Speaker 2: foothold into it. You know, sometimes you need a part

81
00:04:23,800 --> 00:04:26,120
Speaker 2: of the story that you can latch onto. But there

82
00:04:26,160 --> 00:04:29,480
Speaker 2: have been so many kind of disparate incidents that have happened,

83
00:04:29,720 --> 00:04:31,560
Speaker 2: So I thought I want to bring it all together

84
00:04:31,880 --> 00:04:35,680
Speaker 2: and start at the beginning so Boeing. Boeing was worth

85
00:04:35,720 --> 00:04:38,680
Speaker 2: around one hundred and twelve billion US dollars at the

86
00:04:38,760 --> 00:04:41,560
Speaker 2: end of twenty twenty three, and it has around one

87
00:04:41,680 --> 00:04:44,200
Speaker 2: hundred and seventy thousand employees.

88
00:04:44,720 --> 00:04:45,479
Speaker 4: Lots of employees.

89
00:04:45,560 --> 00:04:46,320
Speaker 3: Yeah, big company.

90
00:04:46,480 --> 00:04:47,880
Speaker 4: Essentially, it makes planes.

91
00:04:48,160 --> 00:04:51,640
Speaker 2: So Boeing and the europe based Airbus are the world's

92
00:04:51,760 --> 00:04:54,720
Speaker 2: leading manufacturers of commercial passenger planes.

93
00:04:55,320 --> 00:04:57,080
Speaker 4: Essentially, if you've ever.

94
00:04:56,920 --> 00:05:00,920
Speaker 2: Flown either short or you know, long haul flo you've

95
00:05:01,120 --> 00:05:04,400
Speaker 2: probably flown on a Boeing flight, and you might not

96
00:05:04,440 --> 00:05:07,440
Speaker 2: have known it because we're not talking about an airline

97
00:05:07,480 --> 00:05:09,960
Speaker 2: that says Boeing. We're talking about the people that are

98
00:05:10,000 --> 00:05:12,680
Speaker 2: making the planes that will then have Alaska Airlines or

99
00:05:12,720 --> 00:05:14,919
Speaker 2: other airlines plastered on the front of it. So you

100
00:05:15,000 --> 00:05:16,839
Speaker 2: might not even know you're on a Boeing plane, right

101
00:05:16,920 --> 00:05:17,800
Speaker 2: because you usually.

102
00:05:17,560 --> 00:05:20,560
Speaker 3: Are, because the airlines just buy the planes off the manufacturers,

103
00:05:20,760 --> 00:05:22,359
Speaker 3: give them a lick of paint, and use them in

104
00:05:22,400 --> 00:05:25,839
Speaker 3: their own fleet. So why then is a plane manufacturer

105
00:05:25,880 --> 00:05:26,440
Speaker 3: in the news.

106
00:05:27,080 --> 00:05:30,359
Speaker 2: So it starts back in January when an Alaska Airlines

107
00:05:30,400 --> 00:05:34,600
Speaker 2: flight was traveling between the US states of Oregon and California.

108
00:05:34,839 --> 00:05:38,839
Speaker 2: Now this plane was a Boeing seven three seven Max nine.

109
00:05:39,640 --> 00:05:41,719
Speaker 2: A door on the side of the plane tore off

110
00:05:41,800 --> 00:05:45,520
Speaker 2: mid air, leaving a gaping hole next to some passenger seats.

111
00:05:45,640 --> 00:05:48,600
Speaker 2: And I think we posted about this at the time.

112
00:05:48,800 --> 00:05:50,599
Speaker 3: It was the vision was everywhere.

113
00:05:50,680 --> 00:05:52,960
Speaker 2: I wanted to include it in this, but then realize

114
00:05:52,960 --> 00:05:54,240
Speaker 2: it's one of those things you have to look at

115
00:05:54,279 --> 00:05:54,919
Speaker 2: and not listen to.

116
00:05:55,560 --> 00:05:56,120
Speaker 4: Terrifying.

117
00:05:56,640 --> 00:05:58,680
Speaker 2: So the plane was carrying one hundred and seventy seven

118
00:05:58,720 --> 00:06:01,000
Speaker 2: people and some of those people were injured.

119
00:06:01,680 --> 00:06:04,600
Speaker 3: And when again you think about how many people catch

120
00:06:04,640 --> 00:06:07,080
Speaker 3: planes all around the world, I am sure that that

121
00:06:07,160 --> 00:06:10,800
Speaker 3: event would have struck fear into Boeing because they would

122
00:06:10,800 --> 00:06:13,000
Speaker 3: have thought, well, which other doors are loose?

123
00:06:13,200 --> 00:06:16,520
Speaker 2: Yeah, it was almost a bit freakish in its nature,

124
00:06:16,640 --> 00:06:19,239
Speaker 2: and as a result, there was a pretty swift response

125
00:06:19,320 --> 00:06:19,919
Speaker 2: to the incident.

126
00:06:20,040 --> 00:06:20,840
Speaker 4: Of course, so.

127
00:06:20,960 --> 00:06:25,280
Speaker 2: US aviation regulator, the Federal Aviation Administration will call them

128
00:06:25,279 --> 00:06:28,359
Speaker 2: the f double A. They forced Boeing to ground any

129
00:06:28,520 --> 00:06:32,039
Speaker 2: seven three seven Max nine aircraft for three weeks, so

130
00:06:32,120 --> 00:06:34,800
Speaker 2: that same type of plane had to be grounded for

131
00:06:34,839 --> 00:06:37,760
Speaker 2: three weeks after the incident. It also told Boeing to

132
00:06:37,800 --> 00:06:41,160
Speaker 2: stop expanding production of the Max nine planes, and that's

133
00:06:41,200 --> 00:06:45,440
Speaker 2: a pretty dramatic response. Another government body, the National Transportation

134
00:06:45,720 --> 00:06:49,520
Speaker 2: Safety Board, has found at least four critical bolts may

135
00:06:49,520 --> 00:06:53,000
Speaker 2: have been missing on that plane, and now Boeing's required

136
00:06:53,040 --> 00:06:55,080
Speaker 2: to outline its plans to the f double A to

137
00:06:55,160 --> 00:06:57,159
Speaker 2: improve its safety by June of this year.

138
00:06:57,279 --> 00:06:59,240
Speaker 3: Well, I hope the first recommendation is to make sure

139
00:06:59,240 --> 00:07:00,680
Speaker 3: all the bolts are there on the doors.

140
00:07:00,920 --> 00:07:03,800
Speaker 2: But hey, we'll let the experts advise on that one.

141
00:07:04,480 --> 00:07:06,920
Speaker 3: Let's circle back to that report when it comes out

142
00:07:06,960 --> 00:07:08,840
Speaker 3: in the middle of the year. Is there anything happening

143
00:07:08,839 --> 00:07:09,920
Speaker 3: in the meantime though.

144
00:07:09,920 --> 00:07:12,960
Speaker 2: Look, I think Boeing would have hoped not, but there

145
00:07:13,080 --> 00:07:15,880
Speaker 2: is quite a bit happening. So two weeks ago, the

146
00:07:16,080 --> 00:07:19,960
Speaker 2: CEO of Boeing, Dave Calhoun, announced he would step down

147
00:07:20,000 --> 00:07:22,640
Speaker 2: at the end of this year end of twenty twenty four.

148
00:07:23,240 --> 00:07:26,920
Speaker 2: He cited the Alaska Airlines accident as a watershed moment

149
00:07:26,960 --> 00:07:30,200
Speaker 2: for the company, saying Boeing needed to fully commit itself

150
00:07:30,280 --> 00:07:34,480
Speaker 2: to safety and quality. Then, alongside him, the chair of

151
00:07:34,520 --> 00:07:38,200
Speaker 2: the company's board, Larry Kelner, also announced he won't seek reelection,

152
00:07:38,520 --> 00:07:41,000
Speaker 2: so he won't continue on as chair. And then, in

153
00:07:41,120 --> 00:07:44,480
Speaker 2: terms of what's been happening in relation to that incident

154
00:07:44,520 --> 00:07:47,400
Speaker 2: we spoke about on the Alaska Airlines flight. So last

155
00:07:47,400 --> 00:07:49,520
Speaker 2: week we found out that Boeing has been ordered to

156
00:07:49,520 --> 00:07:52,640
Speaker 2: pay more than one hundred and sixty million US dollars

157
00:07:52,680 --> 00:07:56,760
Speaker 2: to Alaska Airlines as compensation for the disruptions caused by

158
00:07:56,800 --> 00:08:00,560
Speaker 2: the burst panel. Now, the payout covered both losnew from

159
00:08:00,560 --> 00:08:04,200
Speaker 2: the accident and the grounded fleet, because remember Alaska Airlines

160
00:08:04,240 --> 00:08:06,840
Speaker 2: couldn't fly any of the planes that were the same

161
00:08:06,880 --> 00:08:09,920
Speaker 2: make as that one that that accident happened on. So

162
00:08:09,960 --> 00:08:13,360
Speaker 2: that's what the payout is covering. And then seven passengers

163
00:08:13,400 --> 00:08:15,720
Speaker 2: who are on board the flight are also suing Boeing

164
00:08:15,840 --> 00:08:19,320
Speaker 2: and the airline for compensation for physical injuries. So there

165
00:08:19,360 --> 00:08:21,200
Speaker 2: might be something separate that comes out of that.

166
00:08:21,400 --> 00:08:24,000
Speaker 3: And the other rumor that's flying around, get it, the

167
00:08:24,040 --> 00:08:26,880
Speaker 3: other roomor that's flying around, is that Alaska Airlines could

168
00:08:26,920 --> 00:08:30,240
Speaker 3: also be suing Boeing for the reputational damage and the

169
00:08:30,280 --> 00:08:33,720
Speaker 3: loss of business that they saw after that event. I mean,

170
00:08:34,360 --> 00:08:37,160
Speaker 3: you know, consumer confidence is largely based on an airlines

171
00:08:37,160 --> 00:08:37,760
Speaker 3: track record.

172
00:08:37,960 --> 00:08:38,200
Speaker 4: Yeah.

173
00:08:38,320 --> 00:08:40,400
Speaker 2: I went through a stage of my life where every

174
00:08:40,440 --> 00:08:42,200
Speaker 2: time I got on a flight, I would look up

175
00:08:42,280 --> 00:08:45,839
Speaker 2: the safety rating right of the airline until I had

176
00:08:45,880 --> 00:08:49,840
Speaker 2: a domestic flight in a country overseas, and I wish

177
00:08:49,880 --> 00:08:52,480
Speaker 2: I coudn't have looked, And now I don't look anymore.

178
00:08:52,360 --> 00:08:53,880
Speaker 4: And I thought I was going to die the whole time.

179
00:08:53,880 --> 00:08:56,040
Speaker 3: And you can see on the stock market, with whether

180
00:08:56,120 --> 00:09:00,000
Speaker 3: it be Quantus safety issues or Malaysia Airlines safety issues,

181
00:09:00,240 --> 00:09:02,920
Speaker 3: over the years, there's a clear correlation between the financial

182
00:09:02,960 --> 00:09:05,800
Speaker 3: performance of a company and their safety, as there probably

183
00:09:05,840 --> 00:09:09,800
Speaker 3: should be. But Boeing's was don't stop there, do they no?

184
00:09:10,120 --> 00:09:13,600
Speaker 2: So since the Alaska Airlines flight, there have been other

185
00:09:13,679 --> 00:09:18,760
Speaker 2: incidents involving Boeing airplanes. So last month, a Boeing seven

186
00:09:18,800 --> 00:09:21,800
Speaker 2: eight to seven flight from Sydney to Auckland experienced a

187
00:09:21,840 --> 00:09:26,040
Speaker 2: sudden mid air drop that injured around fifty people while

188
00:09:26,120 --> 00:09:29,360
Speaker 2: the flight landed safely. And that's important to acknowledge. Passengers

189
00:09:29,400 --> 00:09:32,200
Speaker 2: on the Latam Airlines flight said that they felt a

190
00:09:32,280 --> 00:09:35,439
Speaker 2: strong shake, which the airline later said had been caused

191
00:09:35,440 --> 00:09:38,640
Speaker 2: by a technical fault. Whether or not that's what happened,

192
00:09:38,640 --> 00:09:42,839
Speaker 2: we don't know. An international investigation remains ongoing into that matter.

193
00:09:43,559 --> 00:09:46,160
Speaker 2: But if that wasn't enough, then over the weekend, as

194
00:09:46,200 --> 00:09:48,720
Speaker 2: I foreshadowed at the beginning a flight in the US

195
00:09:48,760 --> 00:09:50,840
Speaker 2: city of Denver was forced to turn around due to

196
00:09:50,880 --> 00:09:52,400
Speaker 2: an engine cover issue.

197
00:09:52,600 --> 00:09:54,439
Speaker 4: What is an engine cover issue, you might.

198
00:09:54,280 --> 00:09:56,319
Speaker 3: Ask, just well, on top of the engine.

199
00:09:56,280 --> 00:09:59,920
Speaker 2: Yeap, that protective cover of the engine actually fell off during.

200
00:09:59,720 --> 00:10:02,160
Speaker 3: Take So perhaps some more missing bolts.

201
00:10:02,640 --> 00:10:03,720
Speaker 4: Perhaps we don't know.

202
00:10:03,920 --> 00:10:07,720
Speaker 2: Again, an investigation is ongoing into what happened there, But

203
00:10:07,800 --> 00:10:10,120
Speaker 2: we do know that the cover hit the wing flap

204
00:10:10,240 --> 00:10:13,120
Speaker 2: of the plane before it landed right, so it would

205
00:10:13,120 --> 00:10:15,600
Speaker 2: have been kind of scary to do onboard and see that.

206
00:10:15,960 --> 00:10:19,360
Speaker 3: So this paints a not so pretty picture for Boeing

207
00:10:19,400 --> 00:10:22,479
Speaker 3: and it seems like there's now a number of investigations

208
00:10:22,480 --> 00:10:25,040
Speaker 3: the company's having to deal with into what's gone wrong.

209
00:10:25,600 --> 00:10:28,720
Speaker 3: Do we have any sense of what the problem is here?

210
00:10:28,800 --> 00:10:32,400
Speaker 3: Is this a matter of just lightning strikes twice kind

211
00:10:32,400 --> 00:10:35,640
Speaker 3: of thing, or leisure airlines? Yeah? Or is there a

212
00:10:35,760 --> 00:10:39,480
Speaker 3: more endemic problem with Boeing Aircraft's.

213
00:10:39,559 --> 00:10:41,800
Speaker 2: Look, I don't think I'm in a position to answer this.

214
00:10:41,960 --> 00:10:44,240
Speaker 2: I think the only clues we might get, and they

215
00:10:44,240 --> 00:10:46,720
Speaker 2: are allegations. I'm going to say that at the outset

216
00:10:47,360 --> 00:10:51,360
Speaker 2: have come from a former Boeing employee who was a

217
00:10:51,360 --> 00:10:55,600
Speaker 2: whistleblower so whistleblower is someone that shares publicly information that

218
00:10:55,679 --> 00:10:58,760
Speaker 2: is meant to be kept private. So in recent years,

219
00:10:58,840 --> 00:11:01,959
Speaker 2: this former Boeing employee gave evidence against the company as

220
00:11:02,040 --> 00:11:05,880
Speaker 2: part of court proceedings. His name was John Barnett. He

221
00:11:05,920 --> 00:11:10,160
Speaker 2: worked for Boeing for thirty two years, and he alleged

222
00:11:10,200 --> 00:11:13,520
Speaker 2: that twenty five percent of oxygen masks on the planes

223
00:11:13,640 --> 00:11:17,480
Speaker 2: wouldn't work in an emergency. He claimed he repeatedly raised

224
00:11:17,520 --> 00:11:21,199
Speaker 2: concerns about safety and about cost cutting on the production line,

225
00:11:21,400 --> 00:11:24,360
Speaker 2: but he then alleged that he was ignored and that

226
00:11:24,360 --> 00:11:25,679
Speaker 2: those concerns.

227
00:11:25,200 --> 00:11:26,199
Speaker 4: Never went anywhere.

228
00:11:26,840 --> 00:11:30,480
Speaker 2: So Barnet was actually found dead in South Carolina last month,

229
00:11:30,840 --> 00:11:33,480
Speaker 2: So what happens from there we don't really know. But

230
00:11:34,160 --> 00:11:36,360
Speaker 2: at this point, I think that Boeing has a lot

231
00:11:36,400 --> 00:11:39,360
Speaker 2: of reputation building to do. I think it's hard as

232
00:11:39,400 --> 00:11:42,880
Speaker 2: a consumer when you can't choose which manufacturer of a

233
00:11:42,920 --> 00:11:44,599
Speaker 2: plane you want to go with, because you know, you

234
00:11:44,640 --> 00:11:47,360
Speaker 2: book a Quantuslide or you book a British Airways.

235
00:11:47,040 --> 00:11:49,199
Speaker 4: Flight, you don't know what sort of plane they're operating.

236
00:11:49,720 --> 00:11:51,520
Speaker 2: So I think that that lack of control as a

237
00:11:51,520 --> 00:11:54,480
Speaker 2: consumer would be really difficult in the face of these

238
00:11:54,520 --> 00:11:55,280
Speaker 2: sorts of stories.

239
00:11:55,400 --> 00:11:57,640
Speaker 3: And the other thing I found really interesting about this

240
00:11:57,679 --> 00:12:02,480
Speaker 3: story is just how little competition areas in the manufacturing space.

241
00:12:02,520 --> 00:12:05,880
Speaker 3: I mean, think of cars, there's quite a variety of

242
00:12:06,160 --> 00:12:10,880
Speaker 3: cars and car manufacturers that you can pick from. With planes, A, yeah,

243
00:12:11,000 --> 00:12:14,160
Speaker 3: you don't know the model unless you're doing your zsydlal

244
00:12:14,240 --> 00:12:16,800
Speaker 3: research and googling the model of the plane you're about

245
00:12:16,800 --> 00:12:18,840
Speaker 3: to fly. But also there seems to be these two

246
00:12:18,880 --> 00:12:22,520
Speaker 3: major competitors and not much else for all of these

247
00:12:22,559 --> 00:12:23,840
Speaker 3: airlines that we use.

248
00:12:24,200 --> 00:12:26,439
Speaker 4: Sounds like we have a new business idea.

249
00:12:26,600 --> 00:12:28,960
Speaker 3: That's right, And if you're an airline looking to diversify,

250
00:12:29,040 --> 00:12:31,680
Speaker 3: then TDA can supply you with an aircraft. We're looking

251
00:12:31,679 --> 00:12:33,720
Speaker 3: to diversify the business at this point in time, and

252
00:12:33,800 --> 00:12:36,280
Speaker 3: you know why not. Everything's on the table. That's all

253
00:12:36,280 --> 00:12:39,080
Speaker 3: we've got time for on today's episode of The Daily OZ.

254
00:12:39,120 --> 00:12:41,200
Speaker 3: Thank you for joining us. We really appreciate it. Share

255
00:12:41,240 --> 00:12:43,280
Speaker 3: this podcast with a friend if you want to prevent

256
00:12:43,440 --> 00:12:47,000
Speaker 3: us from going into airline manufacturing. We'll be back again

257
00:12:47,000 --> 00:12:49,520
Speaker 3: in your ears tomorrow morning. Until then, have a good

258
