oops. Didn't the Vuclan to the Sky team destroy an engine that way too ?
Silica Gel bags put into the intake of all the stupid places as an anti det measure to try and ensure a low moisture content, why the heck they never put them in the jetpipe where they would have blown out if forgotten is beyond me..

Looked at the range of engines you have BTW
Gnome Wessex... Worked on..
T55 Chinook....... Worked on
Adour Jaguar...... Worked on
MicroTurbo Jaguar...Worked on

You only need a Turmo ( Puma ) and a Conway ( VC10 ) and you have my complete RAF engine technician career sorted.
