At aprox 1400, the left side engine was in it's place, but the right side engine was still in plastic..... ;)

I assume they will also have to perform one or more test flights. Who will supply the pilots? Is this the airline or the inspectors?

Inspectors or Ground engineers do not have a pilots licence.
Normally the airline will provide a pilot. In this case I would exect an LuzAir Pilot to fly it.

Todays engine test run was not very succesfull......

I know ground crew don't have a license, but was wondering whether the airline would fly it or some other crew. What went wrong with the engine run?

Nothing went wrong with the engine run, there hasn't been one yet AFAIK.

Is there any activity around this aircraft? Or did they find something that is greatly expensive and will jeopardize the future flight of this aircraft?

Not for a while now
is there a reason for it? Did they find something that would need more maintenance, money, big issues, etc.?

Mannen,

:?

Wat is er aan de hand met het opknappen van de CS-TMR ?
Waar zijn de BWIA mechanics ?
Waar blijven de 2e hands motoren ?

Straks is de Hadj voorbij !
