It’s taken a few hours, but Singapore Airlines has reacted and in conjunction with Rolls Royce has taken it’s A380’s out of service for preacationary checks.
Or in Singapore Airline’s own words:
Our engine manufacturer Rolls Royce and aircraft manufacturer Airbus have advised us to conduct precautionary technical checks on our A380 aircraft, following today’s incident involving another operator’s A380.
Resulting from this development, Singapore Airlines will be delaying all flights operating our A380 aircraft.
We will keep affected customers updated and more information will be provided once it is available.
Needless to say – expect delays and re- routings.
