Can the theories about fuel waxing etc. be divorced from the GE90 AD issue - while I'm prepared to entertain a fuel temp scenario for this accident, as mentioned above the GE issue was freezing in PNEUMATIC lines, not fuel lines. A very different phenomon, basically. So the mechanism by which fuel waxing, if it occurred, would cause a thrust loss/engine abnormality isn't clear. Well, not to me.
