Seriously interested in hearing from Engines about all of this. He seems to have disappeared off the planet lately..
The rumour of a serious engine redesign has been around for a while. What is Pratts position on this, what effect does it have on acceptance schedules, and what effect does it have on ongoing maintenance schedules/costs?
These are multi-million dollar questions. Along with the other unconnected issues with this aircraft, it's starting to look like an unmitigated disaster...
