parabellum,
Funny enough you put SIA and CX in the same sentence. Brings back memories of an Ansett 747 on the runway in Sydney covered in foam a few years back when it landed with the nose gear up. It did suffer an engine failure first and the problems were traced back to poor maintenance techniques and procedures.

Nuff said!
