The aircraft had a massive crack,(approx 24 inces long x 1.5 inces wide at its widest) in the r/h Body landing gear trunnion. Judging from the surface corrosssion evident on the crack surface, it had been there for a while. It will require jacking the aircraft and a complete gear change.

I imagine our illustrious management are absolutley screwing Singapore for equipment and facilities. Singapore are probably baulking at the price.
