oh dear FE

On arrival it seems the southbound Hi Fly A330 [probably LK3621] "dinged" the B777! Just had to happen.

AFIK the A330 has gone on further south. Traditionally the aircraft will then receive a second ding to even things up.

The Delta pax are still up at Traveller's Hill no doubt enjoying the Mountain View Club and TriStar village. A replacement engine will be sent down [tomorrow?] and the Delta pax will depart again once refuelled. Leaving the engineers the problem of how to hoist the GE90-110 without weakening the bolts like the MD escapade.

Never a dull moment. Always a pleasure, never a chore at Sirius Cybernetics Airways.
