Just an adhesive-backed maintenance chart? They'd really have something to complain about, if it was a frozen African stowaway that landed in their back yard! :suspect:

As far as the B777 report, what do you expect with those ****ty British engines?

"GE all the way, baby"

Really ? I suspect there may be a few at Thomson Airways who disagree, as one of their less than two months old 787s languishes on the tarmac at Cancun waiting for a replacement GE engine to turn up.
Same aircraft G-TUIE had an engine shut down in flight over the Atlantic earlier this month
