Trent 1000 engine failure no problem for B787 deliveries
The 02-Aug-2010 failure of a Rolls-Royce Trent 100 engine during ground testing is not expected to have any affect on the delivery of the B787, according to both the engine manufacturer and Boeing. B787 launch customer, All Nippon Airways, is due to receive its first aircraft by the end of the year, to be powered by the Trent 1000, which has yet to take to the air on a B787.
