Rex prop report

Rex prop report

REGIONAL Express has welcomed the release of an Australian Transport Safety Bureau report into the in-flight loss of a propellor above Sydney last year (TD 18 Mar 2017).

Rex noted the ATSB and engine maker General Electric were unable to conclusively determine the reason for the fatigue crack.

“This leads us to believe that the incident is a very rare and random event which will be largely mitigated by new inspection procedures,” Rex said.
