Interesting...

Singapore Airlines has some of the best maintenance in the industry.

Airbus software problems again?

Most of us have flown in Airbus equipment, multiple times.

I’m beginning to question the robustness of Airbus. Seems fragile. Too much rudder movement, crash. Pitot tube blocked, crash. All engines out: would be a crash at lower altitudes.

You don’t say ...

Some network had an international pilot on this morning...he said passengers would be aware - due to the lack of engine noise.

Could be a similar incident to those that purchased
diesel fuel for their cars, and acquired car hiccups.

From flameout at 39000, to regaining powered flight,
might have some ride, but i congratulate the crew.

lost power mid-flight on both of its Rolls-Royce engines.

Which is why I always try and make my air travel on single engine airplanes. With two, you are twice as likely to lose an engine.

There were 182 passengers and 12 crew members on board the airliner. No injuries were reported.


While no injuries were reported the local underwear cleaning people got rich.

It would be a serious moment when the engines stopped.

Defiantly get everyone's attention

Volcanic activity in the region? I remember that happened a few years ago when a plane ingested fine particles from an eruption.

Two blondes were flying to Miami from Cleveland.

Fifteen minutes into the flight, the captain announced, “One of the engines has failed and the flight will be an hour longer. But don’t worry we have three engines left.”

Thirty minutes later, the captain announced, “One more engine has failed and the flight will be two hours longer. But don’t worry we have two engines left.”

An hour later the capain announced, “One more engine has failed and the flight will be three hours longer. But don’t worry we have one engine left.”

One blonde looked at the other the other blonde and said, “If we lose one more engine, we’ll be up here all day.”
