It’s not a busco problem, its a roller problem.

B had the same problems with their rollers on the 787 [1]. Qantas had the same problem on a roller equipped 747-400 recently ( 08/31/2010 ) [2]. This ain’t no busco problem. Otherwise B would only build junk too.

Well, they are all RR’s, but they are 3 different RR’s.

Hole in the A380’s wing and fuel tank. Much better pic that earlier one.
