When all else fails, read the instructions.

Is the increased electrical load expected to affect the reliability of the donk?

IIRC Etops clearance was based on both the core engine and its ancillaries and their respective drivetrains & gearboxes and their proven reliability.

I never thought Etops was a good idea except for the beancounters.

Only the will of Big G that we haven’t had a major nasty so far as a direct result of this snake oil system.

Interesting caption on one of the pictures, of a 787-MAX.

Aren't all 7 series now Max? Especially if it is something bad and scares people who buy the papers?

I wonder how many SLF remember what was wrong with the 737?
