Nice shot. Did they turnaround and keep heading NW for ISA or need engineering checks? I flew her predecessor the F28 for 2 years.

Hi Chris, they replaced the starboard engine and she flew out this afternoon 22/07/2018

Wow! Big job then. She has the RR Tay turbofans. We had the RR Spey in the F28. Thanks for the info Greg.

Hi Chris, Yes big job mate :)

Cheers Greg! Looks like this unscheduled diversion might have made their day for the local firefighters...
