If we’d owned them an maintained them we would have been well aware that there were serious issues with a number of them across the fleet. This was an incident who’s direct cause was due to lack of Qantas oversight of the engines hanging on the wing.

Lol. I suspect Oriana’s comment was more about sarcasm than anything else. Brand damage? Grounding of the entire A380 fleet for weeks? How about the risk of a hull loss? Sure, no worries. Insurance has it covered!
