Sandeep G 1 Report post Posted December 6, 2006 What is old cowling??? the pictures of MRE show one of the engine cowlings have been replaced (quite clearly the discoulouration is visible) and perhaps the statement was made in reference to that. I don't think it would be an "old" cowling - perhaps more a "standby" or "spare" cowling. Cowlings are supplied in this case via vendors/directly from RR. Romeo Echo got some weird cowling exchange program going on . hee hee Could be PIA? But if SV travelled it with the same?? hmmm.. maybe it was at an outside airport, needed cowling change and got one from another airlines inventory Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Correct....moreover, PIA will be looked after by the EU Aviation Authorities (they're on the 'semi' black-list) That's the reason why they're in dire need of aircraft (and wet-leased the MH 772)...
