11/4: British Airways is appealing a fine of US$ 25,000 imposed by the American Federal Aviation Authorities (FAA) regarding an incident on a Los Angeles-London flight in February 2005. Engine nr 2 of the Boeing 747-400 developed problems after taking off from LAX. The pilots shut the engine down and, after consulting with the maintenance and operations departments in the UK, decided to continue the flight across the Atlantic. The FAA claims that the aircraft was not airworthy and British Airways breached safety rules.

Piece of cake! Cheers
