It's really only amplifying what is already a known area of more detailed inspection. Inspection of this area is specifically called up in a standard 100 (or 150) hourly service. Nothing new here to any Allison (sorry, Rolls Royce if you dont mind) engineers.

It will be interesting to see if a pre-existing crack lead to the 'rupture'. And whether any daily engine trend checks was showing a rise in TOT and/or N1 prior to the incident.

Hey TET, care to retract your pilot slagging off, you might regain some credibility?
