BA Engineering (if BA Eng did handle the EVA air incident) and 747 Nosewheels (up on ground) are regrettably becoming a theme:

AAIB Report G-AWNE

Note it quotes:
In June 1996 a similar incident had occurredat the operator's engineering base at Cardiff (AAIB Bulletin 12/96). Following this earlier incident the staff at Cardiff made andactioned a number of recommendations to prevent a similar occurrence. These recommendations were not reviewed or actioned at the operator'smain base at Heathrow.

In February 1998 a similar incident occurredat the operator's Gatwick base.
(I cannot find URLs for these 2...)
