You need to be looking at online scholarly databases, you should have remote access through your student account. Ask the library staff if you're unsure.

Of course it is highly unlikely, i understand how rigorous aircraft maintenance must by necessity be. That said, this is whole event was highly unlikely and maintenance work on the plane must be considered, especially considering the planes past incident and the recent 777 directive. Mistakes...

Yar, take off and landing absolutely, you'd need to look at exactly how this plane was being used and whether or not it was coming in often enough for thorough maintenance. As well as that you've got things like temperature, whether it's frequently being flown in conditions conductive to...

Not all flight hours are made equal. Certain flight paths cause extra stress on the plane etc. It needs to be maintained appropriately for the conditions. If it was maintained properly, then yeah sure.

You wouldn't if you knew how much money you would lose by pulling all of those planes out of the sky. Now that i think about it, the airline probably isn't even legally obligated to take the planes out of service for something like this, you would just add it to the maintenance schedule...

Most sensible thing i've read so far. Do we know how old the air plane was? Stress cracks are reasonably commonplace and usually aren't an issue given early detection and thorough maintenance. Shoddy maintenance however has been the catalyst of so many incidents.. For not following the...

If the phone call is genuine then the plane never crashed and would likely be still fully intact.

Why? Plane impacts ocean at 800kmp/h + and you wouldn't expect to find much.. Locating wreckage in the ocean is hard, it takes time. It's only been 2 days. Let's not forget it took almost a week to locate the Air France wreckage, and i believe they pretty much 'bellow flopped' on impact at a...

I remember. Extraordinarily sad. That said, loss of 239 people is still a terrible tragedy and imo it is fairly callous to write it off as 'not so bad' by mere comparison to other loss of life. Yes, it could have been worse had it been over land (one of the reasons i have difficulty accepting...

They are all almost certainly dead

Bomb/in-air break up seems unlikely due to lack of debris. I also have difficulty understanding a terrorist attack when the plane encountered incident over water and no group has claimed responsibility. As mentioned, a lack of mayday call indicates that whatever happened occurred suddenly and...

While i really feel like a bitch posting this, it's probably something that you should know about, seeing as the university probably hasn't told you a damn thing. http://www.cecruncher.com/latest+news/the+battle+over+chiropractic+continues+in+australia/

What the reply states is that if you wish to have your USYD credit count towards a specific MQ degree requirement (that is, replace an MQ unit specifically required by your program of study) you must first be exempted from that MQ unit. If you have not had this exemption pre-approved, it will...

What made them useless?

If it's letting you that is very strange - you really shouldn't be able to. Have you actually attempted to enrol in a unit yet? It might not let you until the very last step. It does look as if MQ may be doing things a bit differently this year.. in the past you have had to register for on...

Where does it say that? Postgrad students can enrol from the 6th of Jan. Continuing undergrad students can enrol from the 13th of January. (sorry i did make a mistake above about others at MQ not enrolling for a month) Commencing students (that's you) can enrol from the 13th of February. You...

If you want to take more units than required by your degree you can definitely do so, so long as you're happy to pay for them. Pretty sure you just e-mail e-student and ask them to add on some 'general study' units, which you can use for whatever you want, provided you meet the prerequisites...
