Note 'current data' is may 2007, lot more GE 90-115's in service now. Tips were cropped a few years ago due to rubbing issues, thereby losing some efficiency. To be expected when you look at physical size of engine. Changed 4 in one hit due to fod damage a couple of years ago . Very expensive according to paperwork , but cant remember figure.
