Hi, Could anyone please advise, asap please
Thomas Cook plane reg, G-OMYT flew from Manchester to Cancun on Sat 17/11/2012. Flying over Ireland, it declared an emergency & returned to Manchester, It then had an second hand, Engine Change 17/11/2012
Does anyone know the better specifics of the times involved in this specific engine change for G-OMYT 17/11/2012, & then presumably time to test afterwards. When was it declared fit for service again etc.
Clearly on its return to Manchester, G-OMYT engine would have been looked at, fault tried to be located, then a decision to change engine, then time to find a specific replacement engine, then when all changed, presume it would have had to go on a test flight, which would have involved, taking off slot etc, etc. ALL THIS IS TAKING TIME.
However, We are told, that this specific plane G-OMYT, was back in service long haul at 9am on Monday 19th Nov 2012 to Goa. Clearly the repair crew were super men.
However we are also told that G-OMYT did not fly to Goa on the 19th Nov 2012, but a different aircraft,, does anyone have the G number of that plane. Or proper time, or details of the events above.
Or if not specific to this G-OMYT aircraft, what is an average time scale for the above similar engine change over & testing ??.
Many Thanks.
