A6-EDQ is the first EK frame to have the permanent wing fix applied. It is in Beijing now, where the work is being done.

Do I read that as: 3 months for the permanent wing fix?  |

Do I read that as: 3 months for the permanent wing fix? I seems to me that the repairs took a little more than two months (from May 18th to the end of July). |

OK, let's split the difference: 2 1/2 months  Still, quite a long time out of service. And it has to be multiplied by 35 (aircraft in service). |
