Required parts cost about $780,000 per engine. Based on these figures, we estimate the total cost of the AD to U.S. operators to be $780,595.
Wow, the cost of certified engineers replacing a major part of a huge gas turbine, with the associated aircraft downtime, costs less than a service and having the cam belt changed on my car!

No wonder tickets are cheap!

Real world? Possibly not!
