I think Matt's rather referring to a lot of anti-Airbus rubbish (hence the comment) that was spouted after last weeks incident. And of course that fault's now being rectified by Rolls Royce, and per se had very little to do with Airbus. But hey, the press is the press, they know very little, and care even less...

From a personal perspective, I think I know which emergency I'd prefer to have to deal with, and it certainly wouldn't be any indications of smoke or a potential fire in the radio-electrics bay, even against an uncontained engine failure (at least you know how very unserviceable that engine's just become! ) which of course is partly mitigated against in aircraft with wing mounted single podded engines.
