The 75 cycle removal was only if they were non-modified engines running at full thrust ex LAX. It doesn't affect any brand new or latest mod engines.
All engines are still on a 20 cycle boro, not sure what they are looking at though.The EECs have had a software upgrade that monitors the areas in question more closely.
I heard a good point recently about QF engines, due to the fact that the T900 is overhauled/maintained off wing by a company which is a partnership with RR and one of QFs main competitors and the fact that there is no or very little QF representation during the outside work on these engines QF have in fact no control over these engines once they have left the A380 they were installed on.
Until QF get real about engine overhaul and outsourced quality they don't really have any comeabck when things go awry.
You only need to look at the RB211-524 dramas over the last few years to see the pattern that has formed.
And when things do go wrong, just by saying we don't overhaul the engines it is all XXXXXXXs fault,doesn't indemnify them in the eyes of the public.
If it was on a QF aircraft then according to Joe Public they are going to see it as QFs fault, not some overseas MRO.
