I'm really curious about spare engine availability for the Trent 900. This has got to be pushing the world's supply to its limit. Typically, you build only a few spares early on in the life of an engine program, knowing that the real need won't hit until the first round of shop visits. I imagine that any carriers who have unused spares are holding them close to the vest for the time being, not knowing if and when they will need them.
