There are no hydraulic components in the hot section of the engine.
Why would there be?
The t/rev components are on the forward face of the C duct and the pipelines go via the pylon.
Any pipework into the t/rev is contained in the C duct housing itself and sealed from the engine when closed.
Go and have a look at a fully opened engine and you will see.
Read my quote again about Skydrol............doesn't say it can't be ignited, but says difficult to and hard to sustain a flame.
Pleease tell me what uses hydraulics on the engine because I'm curious.
The EDP supplies aircraft hydraulics and the t/revs utilise hydraulics to work, what else?
