I'm not willing to accept the final conclusions in this report.
Of course the investigation was thorough and the conclusions matched the available evidence up to the point of association with a unique material characteristic not previously identified in fan hub service.
What is needed is a more thorough development of the estimated time and stresses both centrifugal and vibratory modes present in this engines hub in its operating cycle. To wit the operating stresses in this engine may have been abnormally affected during one or more cycles

Are we speaking of the "right" incident ? This thread started about a flight out of Abidjan (Ivory coast) !

Re the OP's incident, an IFSD that doesn't cause any collateral damage (as appears to be the case here) doesn't usually warrant an AIB investigation.
Unless the aircraft continues for another 5,000 miles to its destination on 3 engines.
