Another B787 engine failure??
Shock news: aircraft type that's been is service for more than 5 years has had previous in-flight shutdowns.
|
Why, you would almost think it could happen again!
|
And if it's still new, good new then, it must be still under warranty!
|
|
Engine shutdown ? - Not a big deal.
What might be of more relevance is the implication for the engine manufacturer regarding EDTO/ETOPS or other liability if the fault is more related to a fleet wide problem. |
Or nice vectoring... maybe some kudos to AA Terminal??

OOh that engine sounds a bit dodgy, best to shut it down and i'll get some of that hero pay action. Perhaps I've been in this part of the world too long. |

A combustion chamber boroscope viewing plug blew out and the ensuing flame blow torched a plate sized hole through the nacelle ..... 3 inches away from the main Hi Press fuel line...... doesn't bear thinking of that outcome. Engineer handling incident showed us the photos |
