QF: Further QF32 Engine Incident Coverage

I'm not overly qualified to speak technially on the QF32 incident, so therefore I'll point you in a few resources that can ;)

I'd strongly recommend heading to FlightBlogger who has got excellent coverage

In addition, Flight itself has excellent coverage

- Peripheral Damage to systems: http://www.flightglobal.com/articles/2010/11/04/349304/pictures-extent-of-peripheral-damage-to-qantas-a380-unclear.html
- Fights technical analysis and an excellent cutaway of the affected engine: http://www.flightglobal.com/articles/2010/11/04/349295/pictures.html

ATW Oneline also has good coverage too http://atwonline.com/aircraft-engines-components/news/a380-operators-carry-out-inspections-wake-qantas-engine-failure-110
