Btw: were 02 and 07R in use today? (On VRT niews, they showed an 07R take-off)
Between 12:00 and 15:00 (sorry don't know the exact times anymore) 2 B747's took off from 25L (Asiana and Saudia).
And between 15:00 and 16:00 i saw an Avro of SN approaching 25L.

Maybe the ETOPS was reduced due to the unreliable engine ?
Anyway I hope he will never do it again ...
