Originally posted by Flyhigh View PostIn another tragic case of mismanagement EASA (European Aviation Safety Agency) has decided to suspend it’s approval for SriLankan Airlines due to serious audit finding at SriLankan Airlines. As per our source there were several very serious Level 1 findings which show the Airline has violated the rules set by EASA.
This decision according to a senior Captain will severally affect the Airline, which is already a loss making white elephant.All maintenance activities will now be compelled to be outsourced to nearby countries. Already 4R-ALA A330-200 Airbus is in Indonesia at the Garuda maintenance facility. SriLankan is paying USD 95,000.00 per aircraft only for Labour charges, excluding material costs. There seems to be no light at the end of the tunnel for the Airline and the Taxpayers with the current CEO and the Board and sadly due to the inaction of the Prime Minister.

The European Aviation Safety Agency (EASA) has put SriLankan Airlines on notice after finding shortcomings in its engineering division. If the airline fails to rectify these within six months, it risks losing the EASA certification which allows it to do maintenance checks for other airlines.
The recent action by EASA does not immediately disqualify SriLankan from continuing with maintenance checks. “EASA is working closely with Sri Lankan management to ensure that Sri Lankan maintenance organisation stays in compliance with EASA requirements,” Dominique Fouda, the agency’s head of communications told the Sunday Times

I checked the EASA website. Srilankan is still approved for Part 145 certification.

Originally posted by Haleef View PostIt will be a good idea if A380 serves Colombo. But I doubt that it could pass Apron Delta, as the wingtip might collide with the terminal building. But Apron Alpha taxiways (on edges) have been widened enough for the A380 to proceed taxiing. But there can be an alternative that if the A380 cannot pass through Apron Delta and Charlie, it could maybe taxi on the runway, and then get off the runway near the RWY 22 intersecting point, just near the end, taxi back onto the taxiway, and then get onto the runway from the RWY 22 holding point maybe.
