Thanks Airbubba, but I don't think that the incident I'm thinking of - the 1988 time frame is too late (we were well into certifying the 747-400 at that time). The incident I'm thinking would have been years earlier - around when we were doing the 747-200 with the JT9D-74RG2 (which struggled to meet the stiffened high angle of attack inlet requirements - that would be around 1983 or '84 time frame)
