D checks won’t solve the fleet unreliability, they are early build models, they are scarred for life as one engineer told me, American also having some challenges with early build models. They will return from heavy checks and likely last a day before a whole new range of problems are discovered. At least the A330 could still fly even though it had a few problems here and there, one trusty old girl that kept the schedule in check.
