Airbus, Thales
Operators of Airbus A330s and A340s will have a four-month window to replace Thales Avionics pitot probes once Europe's safety regulator firms up the proposal for an airworthiness directive it published last week. The European Aviation Safety Agency is inviting comment on its proposed mandated changes until 7 September. It has taken the action following several instances of aircraft suffering unreliable airspeed indications, and evidence of a similar situation before the loss of an Air France A330-200 over the South Atlantic on 1 June.

Majorca
It is still safe to travel to Majorca, the British government last night advised holidaymakers, despite two bomb attacks on Sunday. The two small bombs, believed to be the work of Basque separatist group ETA, exploded on the Spanish island just over a week after ETA killed two police officers on the island. No one was hurt in yesterday's blasts, the Spanish Government said, and police defused a third device found nearby amid speculation that ETA is attempting to spread fear among tourists at the height of the summer holiday season.
