AMM Requirements

There is an inspection criteria in Chp 5 and/or 71 of the Aircraft Maintenance Manual for failure of engine post a blade off event. The whole engine, fan cowlings, nose cowl, C Ducts and Common Nozzle Assembly must be removed and quarantined (the CNA is matched to the engine so would be replaced anyway). The Engine pylon mounts will also be removed and replaced. There is then a progressive inspection of the pylon which will require deeper inspections depending on level 1 findings up to level 3 (from memory) if required. A pylon replacement would be dependent on inspection level findings. I would also think Airbus have requested the QAR/FDR data to determine the level and frequency of vibration which they will then base further airframe inspection requirements on also.
