Ini email dari temen Ogut Bros,... untuk jadi bahan masukan,..
hiiiyy.... serem amat nih..
liat attachment-nya deh..
"Beberapa hari lalu saya naik Adam Air. Dapat kursi 15E. Sambil menunggu
take off, iseng2 lihat ke jendela. Di atas engine kanan terdapat sebuah
lubang, entah untuk akses service atau apa, menganga, dengan beberapa
selotip/isolasi di sekelilingnya. "Oh mungkin sedang di-maintain, pikir
saya."
Datang seorang teknisi, dan apa yang dilakukannya? Luar biasa, dia
menutup lubang tersebut dengan beberapa lembar isolasi saja. Tentu saja,
saat take off, semua isolasi tersebut lepas. Saya tidak tahu
kegunaan/fungsi dari lubang tsb dan apa efeknya bagi penerbangan apabila
lubang tsb tidak ditutup. Kemungkinan mereka sudah memiliki sistem
prosedur untuk menempelkan isolasi di setiap bandara keberangkatan.
Lalu akhirnya saya dapat jawabannya dari Boeing....ternyata berbahaya
juga.... hiiiiii....serem!

Hello,
The hatch is an inspection panel for part of the engine and should be
secured with 4 catches, to use tape is very poor practice. There is
actually no problem to the aircraft to fly without the panel, it is just
streamlining and reduces drag. The danger would be when it came off, it
could fly back and hit the tail doing some further damage.
If this aircraft was operated by Adam Air there are already some serious
concerns about their safety practices. You should pass these photographs
onto the Indonesian DGAC for them to investigate. Also you may like to
put them on this link

Dear Sir,
I flew with one of Indonesian airline. And when i saw to right engine
through a window, I saw a strange hole on the top of the engine. Do you
know what this hole/section made for? I don't understand, why they didn't
close the hole/hatch but only used some bloody tapes and all the tapes
lost during take off? Is it safe?
Thanks for your future reply
