…or headwind.

Quiet possible as the displayed speed was ground speed.

What I want to know is whether trimming can cause such things? I had basic loadcontroller training and generally we have a range of trim index within which our actual trim should land in order for the aircraft to take off. For example for the said flight the schedule says it is 21.08 forward to 51.38 aft.

Can these extreme limits cause such cruise speed deviations?

Cheers….

According to who?……

I took the return flight LX645 two days after that and the ascent was smooth and quick. In the earlier flight, half of the 75 minutes flight time we were just ascending to 35K feet. Have flown on B737s/A320s earlier and there general cruise altitude is about 36K and the cruise speed around 950 Km/Hour (as per the captain’s PA announcements :D)

What I meant is, the ULD seems like stuck at the engine inlet. IMO the engine is intact. In the Emirates A 340 tail strike case too, the aircraft was written off. But by looking at the pictures, the damage was just scrapes to the tail end and fractured rear pressure bulkhead. Why repairing aircrafts is so expensive?

Cheers….
