B-747-400 Loss of Multiple Displays
I'm researching a paper on airplanes that experienced loss of multiple displays. I remember a pair of incidents to two SIA B-747-400's in which multiple displays were lost. One on 6 Nov 2001 operating Sydney to Singapore and the other 23 Jan 2003 operating from Singapore to Sydney.
Does anyone have any details. I'd appreciate it.

We've had multiple display losses on our 400s as well. Usually associated with MEC water ingress. Along with other Misc. electrical gremlins, like gens and buses tripping off line.
Mostly an issue in the freighter due to the main deck MEC hatch proximity to the L1 door.

Would the QF 744 with water ingress to the GCU count? LHR-BKK IIRC. Certainly convinced Qantas of the merits of the ISFD with a battery that lasts as long as the fuel.
Hello Goldfish,
have you seen these documents already?

Couldn't find the Singaporean report yet.
A couple of additional events, in the unlikely event you missed them:

Old time Check Captain to me.
What do you do if you lose all displays ?
Answer Sit on your hands. Good advice. Dont touch anything till you are sure you know what is going on..
