Interesting reading when you click on the safety issues tab.....

[h=4]Culture of acceptance of ‘minor’ non-conforming components during manufacture at the Rolls-Royce Hucknall facility[/h]A culture existed within the engine manufacturer's Hucknall facility where it was considered acceptable to not declare what manufacturing personnel determined to be minor non-conformances in manufactured components.

Just advertised on ABC that there will be a story about the FAs who are suing re this incident.

7.30 Report on 02 July.

Be interesting to see their perspective.
