Between Ourselves

Embarrassing to the Company so keep it under wraps ....
Call it Non-Essential as in quote
" The left wing fairing described as non- essential by the airline, was found in a field near the airport" (Sunday Morning Post)
Can these PR people be candid? Can the aircraft be dispatched with a wing fairing missing ??
Why not say it did not compromise the safe operation of the aircraft or is that not true either??
Loss of an engine ?? Strictly speaking "Non- essential" as the 777 can fly with one engine"
And if it falls on me or my property I ( or my estate) will be relieved to know that it was a non-essential aircraft item.
Those magnificent spin men ( and women ) & their flying machines !!!
