Malaysia Airlines has announced that it has identified and resolved a potential issue with the engine of one of its Airbus A350-900 aircraft. The carrier conducted a precautionary inspection of its A350-900 fleet, which led to the discovery of a potential issue with high-pressure fuel hoses on one aircraft.
The airline has assured that the issue was swiftly resolved, and the aircraft has been fully cleared for service in accordance with stringent maintenance protocols. Malaysia Airlines emphasized its commitment to ensuring the highest standards of care for its passengers and crew, with safety and reliability being central to its operations.
The inspection was prompted by a recent incident involving a Cathay Pacific A350-1000 aircraft, which suffered an engine failure due to a high-pressure fuel hose failure. The European Union Aviation Safety Agency (EASA) subsequently issued an emergency directive mandating inspections on A350-1000s powered by XWB-97 engines made by Rolls-Royce.
Malaysia Airlines' swift action in identifying and resolving the potential issue demonstrates its commitment to safety and its proactive approach to maintaining the highest standards of aircraft maintenance. The airline's passengers and crew can be assured of a safe and reliable flying experience.
