"General Electric Co. GE +0.86% said the failure of an aircraft engine on a Boeing Co.BA +1.52% 747-8 in Shanghai was caused by an assembly error, adding a second source of concern about the company's newest engine."

Howdy. This is confusing to me. The impression I have gotten from reading the trades is that the two engines are separate in concern. Now the second problem appears to be piggy backing on the embrittlement problem.

What is your take, barit1?
