I wish I hadn't read that.my buddy just flew Rouge back and forth from Toronto to Dublin and of course I tracked him and that's a big ocean to cross on one.
Shouldn't have happened in the first place, let alone 3 times, but back to the "lemon" theory (@MikeMohle), as long as it's replaced, it shouldn't happen again. And we're worrying too much. As long as there were no casualties, then it's not all that bad. We're too materialistic. As of May, the Market Cap was about $33 billion, so they can afford a new engine, for pete's sake.
Well, this isn't a tire that keeps going flat after we patch it. Slightly bigger deal here.
But is it really? No injuries or fatalities, and sure they'll have to pay, but to Delta, it's like pocket change.
Annoying nonsense article. Three unrelated problems on the same engine. Vibration problem, we don't know the cause - could have been an indication problem. The compressor stalls - pneumatic problem it appears. Oil pressure problem - nothing to do with the other two items. Age of the airplane - 11 years? Doesn't have anything to do with this. How long has this engine been on wing? That's the question. Clickbait. Move on nothing to see hear.
I guess it could be a massive coincidence. But how often does this happen? A lot? Then maybe this isn't such a big deal in itself but rather something that we should be concerned about on a larger scale. Rarely if st all? Then what the hell is going on with this engine?
