@Fahadnaimb Weird one, because as you say the accident aircraft from last week was almost new and should have had the AD applied.
So if it wasn’t the pin-in-wrong-hole of previous incidents, was it no pin, broken pin, wrong type of pin, a different wrong hole?
@MCCCANM I can imagine the debrief between the aircraft commander, ATC, and the fire crew commander - all of whom were sure the aircraft would fit through the gap!
@flightdrama The former Spirit fleet is mostly being cannibalised for the engines, there’s a massive shortage of them and the lease companies can lease engines for more than planes at the moment.
@BohuslavskaKate Very good letter.
I’m not sure the aggressor will respond positively, but one side here clearly wants peace and is willing to discuss.
@Fahadnaimb Someone put the pin in the wrong hole!
Are the engines touching the ground too? That’s going to be a very expensive inspection if they are.
