I think the aircraft, aircrew and even the engine have done extremely well. The engine lunched itself in spectacular fashion yet with non fatal damage to the aircraft and with no fire. When you think that Concorde was finished by a lump of rubber and of more than one aircraft burnt out from a single popped combustion chamber it does show the A380 in good light. Luck as well I know but not just luck. It is a bit sad that Rolls Royce are suffering more because the aircraft did make it back as the damaged engine is there in plain sight during the initial media hysteria. It is unfortunate that the less we know the more we need to talk.
