This suggests that the IAE engine may be the culprit. I understand it has a higher oil pressure than other jet engines thus putting greater stress on its oil seals.
Avherald isn’t a biblical list of events. Many many events happen at airlines around the world which never show on Avherlad. Certain airlines seem to leak more information than others.
