Understand that there was a ramp accident at PVG this morning with two ground staff seriously injured by strong exhaust flow - apparantly a Great Wall flight.

Anybody have more insight ?

It's ture, CAAC is also involved in the investigation.

The airline probably holds the record for having the highest AOG for a Chinese registered airline in and outside of PRC - for lack of proper maintenance. It is nicknamed AOGWL - quite hilarious but apparently very appropriate.

There was an incident of a outboard engine contact during landing in AMS some time ago. The damage was only discovered in MAN where the engine cowling was badly cracked after being aggravated by a 55 min flight from AMS. SIA flew in a team to change the engine. It is suspect that CAAC might not know about it.

Everyone knows the famous AOGWL.

The aircraft engine incident was happened few years ago. But it was said the engine hit the ground in MAN. CAAC was notified this incident and they sent people to inspect the A/C.
