Malaysia: Take Two-2 Missing Aircraft Engines!

Good things normally come in pairs. No, not in the case when two aircraft engines goes missing and end up as sold in Argentina or in West Asia.

To lose one engine is an accident; to lose two is sheer carelessness or designed thievery. Now the score is a loss of RM100 million to uniformed thieves.

The New Straits Times today (22 December 2009) has reported that the RMAF had in fact lost two F-5E engines from its Butterworth base between June and November 2007 and only realised it in May the following year.

As usual, it is the 'rap of the wrist' for the offenders or if investigations are being carried out by the police, they will operate in 'snail or turtle' mode.


So what is new in Bolehland?
