I had missed the Longtail 747 engine incident. Seems she is at Liege, while parts of number 1 engine are embedded in cars.

Japan has ordered ANA and JAL to ground their fleets of 777 fitted with PW4000 engines following the UA328 incident.
There are currently around 60 aircraft with this type of engine flight I believe

Temporary ban of PW engined B777s from UK airspace. Official Directive; publicapps.caa.co.uk/docs/33/SafetyDirective2021002.pdfFrom a contributor on pprune: ”The (Airworthiness Directive) covers PW4000 models with the 112" fan (PW4000-112 / PW4074 to PW4098) and apart from United will primarily affect JAL, ANA, Asiana and Korean“ From further discussions on that forum, the Far East operators already confine these specific PW-engined variants to local / domestic routes. |
