This blade was contained inside the containment ring.The preliminary examination of the engine parts showed that the standard of one ferrule initiated a disturbance in the secondary air system used to cool the HP turbine.This amendment includes additional information for the return to service of affected engines.The original issue of this Directive became effective 30 April 2005. |
