I believe they (B747F) lost a flap fairing enroute from NRT to ANC. Found it missing in ANC. Blamed on improper Maint. during a scheduled inspection. Recently JAL has been out-sourcing a lot of their maint. Guess it isn't always up to par although working for this company I find the aircraft and the maint. staff to be top notch. Actually some of the best maintained jets I have ever flown.
