World's biggest super-jumbos must be GROUNDED, say engineers after cracks are found in the wings of three Airbus A380s
Australian aircraft engineers have called for Airbus A380 - the world's biggest passenger aircraft - to be grounded, after Singapore Airlines and Qantas found cracks in the wings of their super-jumbos....who do you believe??? (www.dailymail.co.uk) 更多...Sort type: [Top] [Newest]
These 'planes hit the deck with a mighty THUD during everday landings. No surprise at all that structural defects have arisen. I hope the ATSB has a real good look at these faults. The ATSB has total integrity without political or economic bias.
There seems to be a hairline crack in the Lufthansa spokesman's English. Maybe, first, we should shut down all Lufthansa spokespeople.
Follow the money is probably more true. Quantas was flying a non-stop between Melbourne and Dallas,Texas. The plane made it to Texas but could never make it back without stopping for fuel. May be they pumped pounds and pounds of fuel and stressed it to the limit for the passenger miles. :<) As Sophia on the Golden Girls always said: "You never know!" Now,Singapore is yet another story.Probably to much Tyson chicken mixed with Wallmart goods. Bentonville does have the longest runway in the US thanks to the chicken and cheap goods boys who lobbied for the airport. Now that Sophia is gone......I'll say it for her: YOU NEVER KNOW.
After Airbus refused to do the "wing stress test" like Boeing did do on their aircraft, I will NEVER fly on an Airbus for what happened ! I felt that they (Airbus), was maybe hiding something? If it ain't Boeing,I ain't going!!
Perhaps you should show up proof of this "refusal"...the airplane would not have been certified without a "wing stress test", either by EASA or the FAA. It would have to snap at or above 1.5x the stress limit. It did, in fact, snap during certification trials just before 1.5x, however it was corrected.
If it ain't Boeing I am not going as well! BOE FTW!!
I sure hope when God or Lucifer comes to take you during the next crisis, and the only ride out is in a Spirit 320, you'll decline it...
