Well that was a major battering today however I believe in RR.L and they have a bright future ahead. I genuinely think we will all look back at this time and think “wish I’d have invested at these low prices”. Tomorrow is another day, be patient and remember Warren buffets words “The stock market is a device for transferring money from the impatient to the patient”.
With all due respect to all posters in this thread, even if there is a surcharge, when your going on holiday how many times do people look at surcharges. There was a surcharge after 9/11 in the USA and people still pay it now, that’s just the way it is. It won’t be the first and it won’t be the last.
I’d agree with Happyhunting, if anything the air Europe issue would have been a drain on the finances. There’s probably some compensation to pay for backing out of a deal but I think in the current climate and with the travel world being so volatile it’s probably best to pay the fine and move on. Nobody could have seen this CoviD and how long it’s gone on for.
Hello and thanks for your reply, this is the very reason I try NOT to reply on this board, however if you look at my replies in my history, you will find they are all factual and to the point just like this one. In this feed (that you started) you started a conversation about a engine failure with a Air Canada A220 from Toronto Pearson’s (YYZ) to New York’s LaGuardia (LGA) which then got diverted to New York’s Newark (EWR) airport (which is in-fact in the state of New Jersey but that conversation can be for another pointless post you start).
In this post you title the post as “ENGINE FAILURE” about a Pratt and Whitney 1500G engine and the link to the story. I am a very keen airline enthusiast so your correct in your analogy that I know a lot more than some (Know it all comment) but this post, whilst interesting, hasn’t got anything to do with Rolls Royce and therefore makes the original post absolutely pointless. It probably would have been better to put this on “Raytheon Technologies Corps” BB if they have one, as they own P and W but there really isn’t anything to see here.
Now moving on to the obscenities, firstly can I please ask you to refer to your reply to me after my first post, it was just a factual post and not intended to offend, but because (for whatever reason) you didn’t like my reply you asked me to crawl back under my STONE, when I think the terminology would have been ROCK but I suppose you can always find stones around a ROCK. I think most folks will agree this post / thread was genuinely pointless and didn’t need to be started but you did so I thought I’d finish it. Take care pal
what the actual F@@k are you talking about, your the one that starts the post and then says what a waste of a post???????. The fact this has got nothing to do with RR and the fact that you ain’t got a clue what your actually talking about amazes me. What a TOOL
MYSTIC, an aircraft can fly on one engine without an issue, that’s what they are designed for. I’m pretty sure it couldn’t have been that bad because the incident happened on the evening of the 08 Nov and on the evening of the 09 Nov it was back at Toronto ready to be put back into its circuit for the 10th. The engine rolled back 30% of N1, do me a favor and have a look what that actually means, the passengers and crew wouldn’t have been aware of it and the pilots would have been professionally trained to deal with these scenarios, the ONLY reason they went to EWR is because of the longer runway, oh and by the way it wasn’t even a RR engine.
@trevorgerald I don’t contribute on here much because there is so many people who put on posts that have no meaning and/or are baseless and not factual. I always say, when I come on here I just read people’s views and that’s all it is to me, the actual decision needs to come from the share holder (clue is in the name). Everyone is allowed to have an opinion as long as it’s fair and unbiased
