Cathay Pacific grounds Airbus A350 fleet for inspections after engine failure incident
By André Orban

3 September 2024


Cathay Pacific has temporarily grounded its fleet of 48 Airbus A350 aircraft for inspections following an unprecedented engine component failure that forced a flight to Zurich to return to Hong Kong.
The airline has cancelled 24 return flights, affecting routes to Singapore, Bangkok, Tokyo, Taipei, and Osaka. The inspections revealed multiple aircraft requiring component replacements, leading to extended maintenance for some planes.
Cathay is coordinating with aviation authorities and manufacturers Rolls-Royce and Airbus.
The incident has also impacted Rolls-Royce’s stock, which dropped 6.47% following the news.

Nuova AD rilasciata ieri 19 settembre da EASA che annulla la precedente emergency AD :

European regulators have widened the number of Rolls-Royce Trent engines potentially affected by a fuel hose defect, in an updated safety directive issued 19 September following an engine fire on a Cathay Pacific Airbus A350-1000 earlier this month.

The European Union Aviation Safety Agency (EASA) has also identified a “specific cleaning process” during engine refurbishment as a likely cause of the damage to the manifold fuel hose on the Trent XWB-97 engine powering the Cathay jet.
