Engine explosion in Denver
The study of an engine explosion on a jetliner taking off from Denver focused on a fan blade that appeared to have been weakened by wear and tear, according to reports.
An initial study of fragments from the engine showed that a crack broke that gradually grew over time.
Investigators said late Monday that two fan cranes broke in the PWt77 engine manufactured by Pratt & Whitney and one showed signs of metal obesity, or hair cracks from wear and tear. They believe the weak blade broke out first, and then cut off half of a nearby blade.
No one was injured in the incident, but the program raised questions about maintenance on the jets.
Planes established
Boeing on Monday (IST) said it was advising air carriers to suspend flights of 777 planes such as the United Airlines plane that suffered a proper engine failure until the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) out monitoring protocols.
In a statement, Boeing said it recommends “suspending the operation of the 69 in – service and 59 in – store 777s powered by Pratt & Whitney engines 4000-112 until the FAA recognizes the appropriate inspection protocol.”
The U.S. airline has said it will issue emergency air control instructions ordering step-by-step inspections of Boeing 777 aircraft with the PW4000 engines.
