Cathay Fuel Leak cause - poor maintenance?
In an article reported in todays SCP, "Cathay Pacific confirmed it had adjusted fuel-line clips on 27 out of 96 engines. The airline's investigation found that the P-shaped clip's position was the main reason fuel leaked from the number 4 engine shortly after flight CX251 left Hong Kong for London on September 5th.
A spokeswoman for Cathay Pacific said the clips had been placed incorrectly, causing cracks in the fuel line. She said the airline had checked all 96 clips and found 27 had to be refitted."
