Hiya FORGET on the nose..hahaha
"My hope is that our fears are unfounded, for the sake of passengers, operators, employees, and the reputation of one of the last remaining UK world-class engineering companies."
Your fears are unfounded. The aircraft and the public is safe. From a commercial view point RR has a bursting order book. This is just a minor technical hitch that was unforseen.
My rant is why it happened. As it turns out the technology we thought we had we actually did not. You can forget the conspiracy stuff. If you want cedibility the only technically qualified contributor here is Turbine D. The rest of us are mainly retired onlookers. So if you read all the posts made by Turbine D and disregard the rest you can be assured of a good understanding.
We were lucky that this event happened as it did with no loss of life. God was with us.
NOTE WELL
I have to add that the logic recorded in the Bayesian paper was more akin to central Europe 1935. This is exactly what happened then. No way will I let that pass.
