Dear Mavrik 1

At last an intelligent post ,thank you very much for that one.

We were told that what you described was exactly what happened duiring construction. (this aircraft was built duiring the Boeing strike,and was severly delayed,and seemed to lack continuity of construction and procedures)

Boeing went into Ostrich Mode

Strange but many years later An RB211535E4A disintegrated over Greece RR had not torqued up the nuts and bolts on the LP turbine. This was also strike related,! Worse still I had flown that one the day before .

Thanks for your suportive post.
