It's only on the A350, and so the number sold has to be rather low, and Rolls-Royce can't get it right? OUCH!

Yeah, they have problems. Sad...

Now who was the cornflake saying that the Airbus A350 engines didnt have any issues?? My only question is thou is are these going to be contained to a certain few engines or are they going to find more issues like they did with the Trent 1000 engines.
