EAD on some P&W NEOs - more P&W delays

EASA said aircraft with two affected engines can only operate three more cycles. It is also ordering extended-range, twin-engine operations (ETOPS) limitations. Airbus has issued an Alert Operators Transmission (AOT) providing instructions “to de-pair the affected engines and discontinue [ETOPS] for aircraft fitted with affected engines,” according to EASA.

Looks like IndiGo might be impacted and avherald reports that the Spirit 320 at KLAS (also the AC with the fume event at FLL) with engine vibrations was also equipped.
