Accounts numbers for nearly half of the Trent 900 engines powerup command operated by Qantas, Singapore Airlines and Lufthansa German, and follows an extensive checks after November 4 for the Indonesia explosion.

"Rollers may have to look at alternative up to 40 engines throughout the A380 fleet" Qantas spokesperson told AFP.

"Which includes the fleet and Singapore Lufthansa.De fleet obviously Qantas has 40 engines to replace, we have six aircraft with four engines each,", she added.

Qantas Chief Alan Joyce said that up to 14 A380 company engines could potentially need to be replaced, leaving unclear when its fleet command will resume the flying their routes in Los Angeles and London.

Rolls-Royce was already change engines to prevent oil leaks, but none of the turbines of Qantas has been updated, said Mr. Joyce.

National carrier the Australia anchored all six of his command after the explosion, which requires an emergency landing Singapour.Qantas said earlier that it will take at least three new engines after security checks found oil leaks.

Singapore Airlines was founded on three of its 11 A380 and Lufthansa develops an engine on one of its three superjumbos precaution, while other A380 operators use turbines made by different manufacturers.

"Rolls-Royce employ around the criteria for which engines must be changed," Joyce said to journalists.

"We hope to understand precisely the engines must be replaced and closes so that we can have a timetable for when they will be back in the air, but we are still a few days far as", he added.

Rolls-Royce was not immediately available to respond to the most recent comments.

A380 double-decker, which carries 525 passengers and weighs 560 tons on take-off was hailed as the future of aviation distances to its commercial launch in 2007.

Rolls-Royce has declined to say what kind of component were wrong on the Sydney Qantas flight, but the defective part has caused an oil leak which then leads to the "liberation" disk turbine, causing the part .the explosion is supposed to be deeply in the turbine, and in some cases the manufacturer will replace engine together rather than single component.

There are 20 order service with Rolls-Royce engines, and each plane has four moteurs.Qantas failed six of its command since the explosion of the engine on 4 November and Lufthansa and Singapore have two rendering engine changes.

Emirates and Air France also fly them the A380, but with an engine made by GE and Pratt & Whitney of the United States.

Dragged rolls 4? to 592?p Tuesday afternoon .they shares fell 9 5pc since the engine failure.

Airbus has 196 another command on order and analysts fear that if Trent 900 is a design flaw, then some clients will switch to the GE-Pratt & Whitney engine instead of this.

Currently, total 234 A380 ordered and delivered, 122 have been ordered with the GE-Pratt & Whitney, engine 90 with roles option and 22 have yet to choose.
