Rolls-Royce to replace parts in some Boeing 787 Dreamliners

LONDON (Reuters) - British aerospace firm Rolls-Royce said it was replacing a component on a number of its Trent 1000 engines which power Boeing's new 787 Dreamliner aeroplane.

"We have identified that a component on Trent 1000 engines fitted to Boeing 787 Dreamliners has a reduced service life. As a proactive measure, this component is being replaced in a number of engines," a Rolls-Royce spokesman said on Monday.

The spokesman was responding to questions about reports that Japanese customer All Nippon Airways <9202.T> had carried out repairs on some of its 787 Dreamliners due to a defect with the Rolls-Royce Trent 1000 engines.
