TD:
However what I really wanted to know was if the SCP duct on XV230 was replaced with new manufacture items before the crash
I can assure you of the folllowing facts:
Immediately following the incident with XX227, the SCP system was taken out of service on all aircraft, although the system itself remained in place. One by one, the SCP ducts were replaced and only those SCPs with replaced ducts were cleared for use.
All aircraft in the Gulf in Sep 06 had replacement SCP ducts fitted.
