JAL clears all A350 planes after engine issue inspections
Japan Airlines says no flight cancellations are expected due to engine inspections spurred by the mid-flight engine fire on a Cathay Pacific flight several days ago.
JAL is one of several airlines which conducted full inspections of Airbus A350-1000 jets following the incident.
Cathay had to ground 15 planes for engine component replacements.
JAL said it inspected all of its A350-1000 and A350-900 jets last week.
“No issues were found on any aircraft,” JAL said
However, it needs additional checks as required by European aviation regulators.
Engine maker Rolls-Royce is ‘working with our customers and our supply chain, and are confident in our ability to deliver on the inspection regime.’
