SQ365 6/10 B777-200ER Engine problem
A technical friend who was a passenger on this flight, Rome to Singapore, has asked me to find out what was actually wrong with the port engine which caused a three hour delay.
The passengers were initially told that an early departure was looking likely then that the left engine had a problem and there would be a delay. Other information from the captain:
The engine, itself, was OK, the problem was with an indicator.
They would have to fly at a lower level and on a different route.
The fault would increase the workload in the cockpit.
They subsequently flew no higher than FL330.
