Maybe they should have just landed in TOU and have Airbus solve the problem!!!
They could have, but they changed their minds when they realized their warranty cards weren't onboard.
SQ does have a maint manager in CDG and trained the engineering staff over there for their 380 ops, so better peace of mind to be diverted there. Saw AOG kit and a spare RRTrent 900 engine ready to be shipped over this afternoon at the freighter stands in SIN.
The doubledecker A380 took off from Paris at 12.30 pm with 444 passengers aboard
Wow, a load factor of 94%. A random sample nonetheless. What economic crisis ?
