Subject: Australian Transport Watchdog To Quiz Qantas A380 Flight Crew Author: 08/11/2010 1:14PM [ Next Thread | Previous Thread | Next Message | Previous Message ] Date Posted: 7/11/10 18:36:40 Australian Transport Watchdog To Quiz Qantas A380 Flight Crew 08/11/2010 1:14PM SYDNEY (Dow Jones)--Australia's air safety regulator plans to interview the flight crew of the Qantas Airways Ltd. (QAN.AU) A380 Airbus which made an emergency landing at Singapore's Changi airport last week following an engine explosion shortly after take off. The Australian Transport Safety Bureau said Monday the interviews will take place in the next few days, while confirming that the aircraft's affected No. 2 engine will shortly be removed for inspection. An Airbus A380 test pilot will arrive in Canberra Monday to assist in the examination of the cockpit indicators leading up to the engine failure, the ATSB said in a statement. Efforts to track down parts of the engine on the Indonesian island of Batam are continuing, it said. A portion of the recovered engine component has arrived in the U.K. and will be subject to technical examination at the Rolls Royce Group PLC's (RR.LN) plant in Derby from Tuesday, the ATSB said. The damaged two-deck jet, with 466 passengers and crew onboard, returned safely to Singapore and Qantas immediately grounded all six of its A380s for inspections. It has since reported problems with other engines in its A380 fleet. -By James Glynn, Dow Jones Newswires; 61-2-8272-4685; james.glynn@dowjones.com Click here to go to Dow Jones NewsPlus, a web front page of today's most important business and market news, analysis and commentary: http://www.djnewsplus.com/access/al?rnd=yMhVPSWBpuXTsUx60lOznw%3D%3D.
