Text from a guy coming to work for me :

B 747 400 se Enjin lyk my is gefok. Klim nou uit vliegtuig. 3 ure delay. Waar de fok is Kenia of Ethiopie se counters. ek soek ander kaartjie :p :p :p

"Loosly translated" from a non flying type " The Accra route B747 has engine troubles and my guy is not happy (Army 22 years you know) so he is searching frantically for the ET or Kenya Airways counter " :}

Anybody any news ??? :E:E:E

Instead of 1700 my man arrives 2330 - but he remained loyal .. and stayed with SAA :E

He text me and said all 4 holes started and he saw no smoke - so he was happy :suspect:

From the non-flying type : " Man the captain explained it was like a car's carburettor that packed up .. " :E

Must have been an FCU of some sorts ?
