Default Junk *British* Aircraft Engines

https://www.foxbusiness.com/markets/...lem-has-spread

LONDON (Reuters) -

Britain's Rolls-Royce said a costly compressor problem that had grounded Boeing planes had now been found in a different type of engine, compounding pressures on a group that is due to cut more than 4,000 jobs this week.

Britain's best known engineering company has been hit by a problem with a compressor in the Trent 1000 package C engine that is not lasting as long as expected, grounding planes, forcing inspections and angering airline clients.

The engine powers Boeing's 787 Dreamliner jet.

It was a female pilot.Â* The "check engine soon" light came on while the aircraft was climbing to altitude.Â* We all know what females do when they see the "check engine soon" light.Â* There's a reason they call it a cock-pit.

Maybe you're on to something there fellah. In the good old days we had another man there just to watch all the lights and gauges too.
