I think Airbus needs to formally address what the AIBN final stated, that the “Puma” transmission is at its design limits. Instead, Airbus continues to point to a maintenance issue for G-REDL and a crate falling off the truck for LN-OJF.
What they fail to address is that the majority of 2nd planetary gears/bearings didn’t meet their operational time limits since the L2s started flying. So short of a new main transmission design/installation for the 225, I don’t think the masses will touch it. But then that would also require Airbus to admit they had a problem to begin with.
