During turnaround in AMS yesterday an engineer said they were doing a double engine change for Martinair. Said both engines were full of glass, sand that had melted and then vitrified(?).They had gone through the sand on arrival, and then brought the aircraft back from Izmir and had a second dose.

Glad everyone seems to be OK.

My only query is, having gone down through it and landed OK, why would you want to launch off and have another shot at it?

Answers on a post card please.
