>>1296880>Boeing is being stubborn while the rest of the world bans 737 from flying.After Qantas Flight 32, Airbus recommended to all airlines operating the A380 with Rolls-Royce Trent 900 to ground the aircraft until further notice and EASA issued an Emergency Airworthiness Directive to have all Trent 900 engines inspected for strength and and ground idle performance.
After a few weeks, the A380 returned back to the skies.
When Air France Flight 66 occured, Airbus recommended the same occur with all A380s with the Engine Alliance GP7000 engines, but it was the FAA which issued the EAD this time, ordering complete engine testing (Engine Alliance is a joint venture between GE and P&W). After extensive testing, the A380s re-entered service with no issues.
To date, those two incidents have been the only significant incidents of the A380 (with the exception of a few taxi-way collisions where the wingspan of the A380 lead to the A380 hitting a parked plane, or hitting another plane waiting on the taxi-way).
After AF447, Airbus got as many chief pilots as they could from as many airlines as they could (which operate Airbus aircraft) and they stressed to them the importance of existing SOPs as well as the importance of Positive Transfer of Controls and Aviate, Navigate, Communicate and Airbus also produced a card, given to all Airbus pilots at the time (as many as Airbus managed to anyway) which has 4 "Golden Rules" on them.
Boeing on the other hand used to dismiss issues raised by American Airways chief pilots as "impossibilities". It would only be years later that Boeing incidents would occur which AA pilots predicted could happen.
