SPAZ so this is good news? Hollow, lighter, blades get replaced in all future production engines with heavier solid blades.
I was under the impression that there was a weight problem with the F35..... So when/if this change in specification is approved, all engine testing goes back to zero hours for the system.
When will there be enough engines with the new blades to continue/start engine testing?
Just a thought...
