Many thanks Casual Observer....good info.


Just one more thing,as I raised previously......how do they manage to "glue" (or whatever) a metal leading edge onto a composite fan blade in such a way that the whole thing stays in one piece...the stresses,vibration and deformations are pretty horrendous,and failure is not an acceptable option to say the least!
