An Aer Lingus UK Airbus A330-300, registration G-EILA performing flight EG-935 from Manchester,EN (UK) to Orlando,FL (USA) with 304 people, was enroute at FL330 about 460nm southwest of Shannon (Ireland) when the crew decided to declare PAN PAN, turn around and divert to Shannon due to problems with their right hand engine (CF6). On approach the crew advised they would land single engine with the right hand engine shut down and were conducting an overweight landing and would stop at the end of the runway for an inspection by emergency services. After landing on Shannon's runway 06 the crew requested an inspection of the brakes.
The aircraft is still on the ground in Shannon about 6 hours after landing.
