CX A330 White-Smoke-On T/O This Morning...

Heard from some spotters that a CX 330 had a "white-smoke-on" take-off this morning, or was their an election of the pope today?

Thanks C172 and N1, must have been some fuel leak to cause them to shut down the donk.

Should a Haeco guy be loaded up with 20 plus aircraft a day, some with heavy duty component changes called up? I'm not going to moralise on this one, maybe should tell em to shove it, because the way it works there, you are lucky there hasn't been 100 more incidents.

U know something we don't?

you are lucky there hasn't been 100 more incidents.
Oops.
Another one to add to the tally?
Passed CX410 heading back with 1 shut down and possible fuel leak this arvo.
700RVR when we left, so a bit of added excitement.

Isn't that why they brought slaves from Xiamen?

Haeco = $

Taeco = $

CX = $

Employees = Opportunity for sexual abuse

Safety = ?


I bid you a good day and a pleasant flight!
