Airbus A380, (Reuters) – Singapore Airlines will delay all flights on its fleet of Airbus A380 waiting for precautionary checks after the same model used by Qantas Airlines has suffered an engine failure, an official said Thursday.

It was not immediately clear how many flights would be affected or for how long.

“Our Rolls Royce and aircraft manufacturer Airbus has advised us to proceed with caution roadworthiness of our A380 aircraft, after today’s incident involving another A380 operator,” Nicholas Ionides, Vice Singapore Airlines president for public affairs, said in a statement.

“Resulting from this development, Singapore Airlines will delay all flights operating our aircraft A380.”
