Let’s just say it turned into a ferry flight instead of an RPT service lol.
I think this is a self limiting problem! I.e. how long till you divert because you could not fly through a cloud layer on approach due to the missing ant-ice? Or blocked a runway due to shredded tires (anti-skid)?



Apart from these extreme horror stories, the question of the OP remains. Do recent events merit a change in the APU inop MEL-procedure?
