Engine maker Rolls Royce is being sued for undisclosed amounts by Qantas, as the airline, keen on re-entering overwater service LA SYD, has a thick file on Rolls' dereliction in modifying the Aircraft in service with new mods. The Airline is not restarting the service as yet, as it is Rolls' statements alone that "CLEAR" the powerplant to re-enter service. Having been screwed on several counts by Rolls, Qantas has said 'it is not up to Rolls, obviously, there is the matter of clearance from the authorities, and for that matter, our own engineers, pilots, and attorney's.........' We'll wait.
