The UK company was responding to an incident that occurred on Monday on a Cathay Pacific Airbus A350-1000 airliner, which resulted in the plane having to land back in Hong Kong shortly after it took off for Zurich.
According to news agency, investigations were concentrated on a gasoline nozzle located inside the Trent XWB-97 engine.
That is the Rolls-Royce model that all A350-1000s are equipped with.
Following the incident, Cathay Pacific announced that 24 flights had been canceled to allow for fleet-wide examinations on its A350 fleet.
For a statement, News has gotten in touch with the UK airlines who fly the A350-1000, which are believed to be Virgin Atlantic and British Airways.
However, according to Reuters, which cited sources at foreign airlines, other airlines had not yet received instructions to inspect their engines, and information from flight monitoring firm FlightRadar24 showed that Tuesday’s flights by other significant operators were proceeding as planned.
In an early statement on Tuesday morning, the company said: “Rolls-Royce takes note of the airline’s claims that it has initiated a preventive inspection of its fleet and that, in the event that any parts require replacement, spares have been obtained and the work can be finished while the engine is operating.
