find this slightly concerning:
"Some small items of debris were discovered in the following
locations:
1. Right main tank – a red plastic sealant scraper
approximately 10 cm x 3 cm under the suction
inlet screen.
2. Left main tank, water scavenge inlet - a piece of
black plastic tape, approximately 5 cm square;
a piece of brown paper of the same size and
shape, and a piece of yellow plastic.
3. Right centre tank override pump – a small
piece of fabric or paper found in the guillotine
valve of the pump housing.
4. Left centre tank water scavenge jet pump
– small circular disc, 6 mm in diameter, in the
motive flow chamber."
Especially as it now appears to have been fuel starvation!
Nothing unusual there!!
There have been much worse incidents concerning things left in aircraft!
1. Inspection Engineers chair.
2. Flow pack in the tanks discovered on fuelling the aircraft.
I could go on point is to learn by our mistakes and in this case a basic design flaw may have been over looked!
luckily only a dented pride, a rather expensive insurance bill, but no lives lost!
No lives lost is the important bit!
Unfortunately as humans we a prone to Human error!
and to poor grammer
