There's no way these snakes are getting on any plane.
In the Mojave Desert in California, Qantas engineers are taking on the rattlesnakes and scorpions who call the desert home.
Its pistons at dawn for the workers based at the airline's Los Angeles hanger. They've had to add a new pre-inspection procedure to avoid unfortunate encounters with rattlesnakes when they carry out weekly maintenance checks on the A380s in storage.
The desert-based airfield is probably one of the most famous aircraft parking lots in the world, with airlines from all over sending their grounded aircraft there for long term storage.
