The C30P is a GA application

The C30R/3 is a military variant.

The C30P is a non fadec traditionally regulated turbine.

The C30R/3 has FADEC

Has anyone had an uncontained faluire of these turbines yet? I know an AD was issued for a containment ring, AD 2005-10-13. This only applies to the series 2 engines (ie, C20,B17,C20R ect). Which in theory, should have "contained" a falure of the hot section. Somehow I doubt this after inspecting a containment ring and doing some math on the rotating inertia of the turbine section.
Anyone had anything with the series 3 and 4?
