GENERAL REPAIR
1. General
The repairs given in this section are for structural damage which
goes beyond the limits shown in the Allowable Damage section. The
repairs are show you how to restore a part to it’s original strength
and configuration. Procedures to refinish a repaired area are also
given.
2. Adhesive Preparation
Some repairs call for the use of certain adhesives. The following are
the procedures to use in the preparation of the adhesives.
A. EA956/L3 Adhesive
B. EA956 Adhesive
C. EA934NA Adhesive
The number of carbon fabric repair plies used is equal to the number
of damaged plies. See the Structural Identification section to find
the number of plies in the damaged area. You cannot examine the
damaged skin to count the plies. Cured carbon plies are very
difficult to separate at ply interfaces.
Both the original skin and the repair material must be clean and dry
before the repair can be started. Water on the surface or in the
materials will make the repair weak. All water must be removed before
the repair can be done. Use heat lamps at 230ºF-250ºF (115ºC-127ºC)
for one hour.
Drain holes are in the lower part of the inlet cowl outer barrel to
permit moisture to be vented. If these holes are closed during
repair, they must be reopened.
4. Titanium Structures
The forward and aft bulkheads are made of titanium. The bulkhead is
made up of sections of sheet titanium spliced together to form the
bulkhead. Formed titanium inner and outer cap angles are attached to
the edges of the web and to the outer barrel and inlet lip.
Repairs to the forward and aft bulkheads must be sealed to keep the
pressure (approximately 2 psi maximum) between the inner and outer
barrels.
The acoustic panels form the inner barrel of the inlet cowl. Their
main purpose is to reduce the noise that comes from the engine inlet
area. The panels are also the main load-bearing structure for the
inlet cowl.
Woven wire cloth is bonded to the perforated inner skin of the panel.
It contributes to the noise reducing ability of the panel.

WARNING: USE THE CORRECT PROCEDURE AND EQUIPMENT WHEN YOU MOVE THE
COWL. MAKE SURE THE COWL IS HELD CORRECTLY DURING THE REPAIR
PROCEDURE.
CAUTION: BE CAREFUL WHEN YOU MOVE THE COWL. DO NOT POSITION THE COWL
DIRECTLY ON TO A HARD SURFACE.
A. Referring to Fig 202 examine the repair area to assess the amount
of damage and, using the standard workshop tools, measure the depth
of the damage. Do this in several places where the extent of the
damage permits. From this information the number of repair plies
should be calculated as follows:
Where doubt can arise over the exact magnitude of the damage
penetration, i.e. deciding between 0.024in. (0,61 mm) and 0.025in.
(0,64 mm), assume the larger figure as the criteria for selecting
the number of repair plies to use. That is, 4 plies rather than 3,
for this example. If on examination it is found that the damage has
fully penetrated the carbon plies and the honeycomb core, repair is
beyond the scope of this document. In this event do SRM 54-10-00
REPAIR No. 004 (VRS 2802).

A. Clean the damage and repair area of the bulkhead with the
methylethylketone (CoMat 01-076) and lint free cloth
(CoMat 02-099). Wipe the area with a clean piece of lint free cloth
before the fluid dries.
A. Apply the teflon tape to the repair area. Fig 202 shows the
dimensions of the area to be covered with the tape (Repair of 2 ply
damage shown).
B. Make the surface of the repair area rough and remove the sharp
edges from the damage with the abrasive paper (CoMat 05-021). Do
not damage the carbon plies of the bulkhead.
A. Cut the first repair ply so that it has a 2.0in. (50,8 mm) overlap
around the damage. Use carbon fabric (CoMat 08-059) and lint free
gloves (CoMat 02-097). To prevent fraying, the plies may be cut to
the finished dimensions after soaking in adhesive (Ref. step
10.C).
B. Cut the remaining repair plies if they are required using the
carbon fabric and lint free gloves. Cut each subsequent repair ply
2.0in. (50,8 mm) longer and 2.0in. (50,8 mm) wider. There must be a
repair ply for each ply of the bulkhead which is damaged and these
must be covered by a single fiberglass ply (CoMat 02-167). To

WARNING: USE THE CORRECT PROCEDURE AND EQUIPMENT WHEN YOU MOVE THE
COWL. MAKE SURE THE COWL IS HELD CORRECTLY DURING THE REPAIR
PROCEDURE.
CAUTION: BE CAREFUL NOT TO CAUSE DAMAGE TO THE EDGES AND THE CORNERS
OF THE COWL.
A. Attach the lifting sling to the cowl and with the aid of the
rotatable dolly position the cowl so that it is lying horizontally.
A. Referring to Fig. 201 and 202 examine the repair area to assess the
amount of damage and, using the standard workshop tools, measure
the depth of the damage. Do this in several places where the extent
of the damage permits. From this information the number of repair
plies should be calculated as follows:
Where doubt can arise over the exact magnitude of the damage
penetration, i.e. deciding between 0.045in. (1,14 mm) and 0.046in.
(1,17 mm), assume the larger figure as the criteria for selecting
the number of repair plies to use. That is, 4 plies rather than 3,
for this example. If on examination it is found that the damage has
fully penetrated the panel, repair is beyond the scope of this
document. In this event reference must be made to alternative
repair procedures.

A. With reference to Fig. 201 and 202 calculate the distance for
positioning the strip of teflon tape (CoMat 02-007) from the edge
of the damage as follows (repair of 2 ply shown): from the edge of
the damaged area measure 1.0 in. (25,4 mm) from each damaged ply of
the cowl, i.e., if 4 plies damaged then measure 4.0 in. (101,6 mm)
from the edge of the damaged area. Add 0.75 in. (19,05 mm) for an
outer layer of fiberglass fabric (CoMat 02-167). Apply the teflon
tape so that it goes around the repair area in a 2.0 in. (50,8 mm)
wide strip. Make the corners at an angle of approximately 45
degrees and approximately 1.0 in. (25,4 mm) length of side.
B. Remove the sharp edges of the damage using the abrasive paper
(CoMat 05-021) and, with a fresh piece of the abrasive paper, make
the surface of the repair area rough.
A. Cut the first repair ply so that it has a 2.0 in. (50,8 mm) overlap
around the damage. Use carbon fabric (CoMat 08-059) and lint free
gloves (CoMat 02-097). To prevent fraying, the plies may be cut to
the finished dimensions after soaking in adhesive (Ref. step 10.C).
B. Cut the remaining repair plies if they are required. Use the carbon
fabric and lint free gloves. Cut each subsequent repair ply 2.0in.
(50,8 mm) longer and 2.0in. (50,8 mm) wider. Cut the last ply
(sanding ply) from fiberglass fabric to give a 1.0in. (25,4 mm)
overlap beyond the teflon tape. There must be a repair ply for each
ply of the panel which is damaged and these must be covered by a
single fiberglass ply. To prevent fraying, the plies may be cut to
the finished dimensions after soaking in adhesive (Ref step 10.C).
A. Dry the repair area. Use the heat lamp to keep the repair area of
the panel at 176oF (80oC) for six hours. The repair materials must
be applied at the end of the six hours.
10. Prepare the repair materials (Ref. Fig. 201 and 202).

CANCELLATION NOTICE
1. General.
B. This repair fills the damaged area with resin and installs carbon
fibre repair plies and a fiberglass sanding ply.
C. The damage must not go beyond the stiffener area and must be a
minimum of 2D from a fastener. The damage must not go through all
the composite plies and into the stiffener. The damage must be more
than (4 repair plies + 1 sanding ply) 4.75 in. (120,7 mm) from the
edge of the panel and no more than 24.5 in. (622,3 mm) around the
circumference. The damage can be nearer to the edge if less than
four plies are damaged. Refer to Fig. 201 and 202. There must be a
minimum of 10 in. (254,0 mm) between damaged areas.
D. The orientation of the carbon fibre repair plies must follow the
sequence (±45)/(0-90)/(±45) for a 3-ply region,
(±45)/0-90)/(0-90)/(±45) for a 4-ply region. Refer to Fig. 201.

A. Referring to Fig. 201 and 202 examine the repair area to assess the
amount of damage and, using the standard workshop tools, measure
the depth of the damage. Do this in several places where the extent
of the damage permits. From this information the number of repair
plies should be calculated as follows:
Where doubt can arise over the exact magnitude of the damage
penetration, i.e. deciding between 0.045in. (1,14 mm) and 0.046in.
(1,17 mm), assume the larger figure as the criteria for selecting
the number of repair plies to use. That is, 4 plies rather than 3,
for this example. If on examination it is found that the damage has
fully penetrated the panel and is into the stiffener, repair is
beyond the scope of this document. In this event reference must be
made to alternative repair procedures.

A. With reference to Fig. 201 and 202 calculate the distance for
positioning the strip of teflon tape (CoMat 02-007) from the edge
of the damage as follows: from the edge of the damaged area measure
1.0 in. (25,4 mm) for each damaged ply of the cowl, i.e., if 4 plies
are damaged then measure 4.0 in. (101,6 mm) from the edge of the
damaged area. Add 0.75 in. (19,05 mm) for an outer layer of
fiberglass fabric (CoMat 02-167). Apply the teflon tape so that it
goes around the repair area in a 2.0 in. (50,8 mm) wide strip. Make
the corners at an angle of approximately 45 degrees and
approximately 1.0 in. (25,4 mm) length of side.
B. Remove the sharp edges of the damage using the abrasive paper
(CoMat 05-021) and, with a fresh piece of the abrasive paper, make
the surface of the repair area rough.
A. Cut the first repair ply so that it has a 2.0 in. (50,8 mm) overlap
around the damage. Use carbon fabric (CoMat 08-059) and lint free
gloves (CoMat 02-097). To prevent fraying, the plies may be cut to
the finished dimensions after soaking in adhesive (Ref. steps 1.D.
and 9.C.).
B. Cut the remaining repair plies if they are required. Use the carbon
fabric (CoMat 08-059) and lint free gloves. Cut each subsequent
repair ply 2.0in. (50,8 mm) longer and 2.0in. (50,8 mm) wider. Cut
the last ply (sanding ply) from fiberglass fabric to give a 1.0in.
(25,4 mm) overlap beyond the teflon tape. There must be a repair
ply for each ply of the panel which is damaged. To prevent fraying,
the plies may be cut to the finished dimensions after soaking in
adhesive (Ref steps 1.D. and 9.C.).
A. Dry the repair area. Use the heat lamp to keep the repair area of
the panel at 176oF (80oC) for six hours. The repair materials must
be applied at the end of the six hours.

A. Referring to Fig. 201 and 202 examine the repair area to assess the
amount of damage and, using the standard workshop tools, measure
the depth of the damage. Do this in several places where the extent
of the damage permits. From this information the number of repair
plies should be calculated as follows:
Where doubt can arise over the exact magnitude of the damage
penetration, i.e. deciding between 0.045in. (1,14 mm) and 0.046in.
(1,17 mm), assume the larger figure as the criteria for selecting
the number of repair plies to use. That is, 4 plies rather than 3,
for this example. If on examination it is found that the damage has
fully penetrated the panel, repair is beyond the scope of this
document. In this event reference must be made to alternative
repair procedures.

A. With reference to Fig. 201 and 202 calculate the distance for
positioning the strip of teflon tape (CoMat 02-007) from the edge
of the damage as follows: from the edge of the damaged area measure
1.0 in. (25,4 mm) for each damaged ply of the cowl, i.e., if 4 plies
damaged then measure 4.0 in. (101,6 mm) from the edge of the
damaged area. Add 0.75 in. (19,05 mm) for an outer layer of
fiberglass fabric (CoMat 02-167). Apply the teflon tape so that it
goes around the repair area in a 2.0 in. (50,8 mm) wide strip. Make
the corners at an angle of approximately 45 degrees and
approximately 1.0 in. (25,4 mm) length of side.
B. Remove the sharp edges of the damage using the abrasive paper
(CoMat 05-021) and, with a fresh piece of the abrasive paper, make
the surface of the repair area rough.
A. Cut the first repair ply so that it has a 2.0 in. (50,8 mm) overlap
around the damage. Use carbon fabric (CoMat 08-059) and lint free
gloves (CoMat 02-097). To prevent fraying, the plies may be cut to
the finished dimensions after soaking in adhesive (Ref. steps 1.D.
and 9.C.).
B. Cut the remaining repair plies if they are required. Use the carbon
fabric and lint free gloves. Cut each subsequent repair ply 2.0in.
(50,8 mm) longer and 2.0in. (50,8 mm) wider. Cut the last ply
(sanding ply) from fiberglass fabric to give a 1.0in. (25,4 mm)
overlap beyond the teflon tape. There must be a repair ply for each
ply of the panel which is damaged. To prevent fraying, the plies
may be cut to the finished dimensions after soaking in adhesive
(Ref steps 1.D. and 9.C).
A. Dry the repair area. Use the heat lamp to keep the repair area of
the panel at 176oF (80oC) for six hours. The repair materials must
be applied at the end of the six hours.

GENERAL REPAIR
1. General
Repairs given in this section are for structural damage exceeding the
limits shown in the Allowable Damage section. The repairs are written
to restore a part to it’s original strength and configuration as when
it was manufactured. Procedures to refinish a repaired area are also
given.
2. Adhesive Preparation
Some repairs call for the use of certain adhesives. The following are
the procedures to use in the preparation of the adhesives.
A. EA956/L3 Adhesive

A. Referring to Fig. 202 examine the repair area to assess the amount
of damage and, using the standard workshop tools, measure the depth
of the damage. Do this in several places where the extent of the
damage permits. From this information the number of repair plies
should be calculated as follows:
Where doubt can arise over the exact magnitude of the damage
penetration, i.e. deciding between 0.045in. (1,14 mm) and 0.046in.
(1,17 mm), assume the larger figure as the criteria for selecting
the number of repair plies to use. That is, 4 plies rather than 3,
for this example. If the damage goes through the panel, or goes
into the honeycomb of the panel, refer to manufacturer.

carbon fibre fabric (CoMat 08-059) so that it has a 2.0 in.
(50,8 mm) overlap around the damage (Ref. step 1.D.).
(1) Wear lint-free gloves (CoMat 02-097) and use dry carbon
fibre fabric (CoMat 08-059), and cut each subsequent repair
ply
2.0 in. (50,8 mm) longer and 2.0 in. (50,8 mm) wider. There
must be one repair ply for each ply of the panel which is
damaged (Ref. step 1.D.).
(1) Wear lint-free gloves (CoMat 02-097) and cut one piece of
fiberglass fabric so it has a 1.0 in. (25,4 mm) overlap
around the area identified by the teflon tape.
A. Dry the repair area. Use the heat lamp to keep the repair area of
the panel at 176oF (80oC) for six hours. The repair materials must
be applied immediately at the end of the six hours.

A. Referring to Fig. 202 examine the repair area to assess the amount
of damage and, using the standard workshop tools, measure the depth
of the damage. Do this in several places where the extent of the
damage permits. From this information the number of repair plies
should be calculated as follows:
Where doubt can arise over the exact magnitude of the damage
penetration, i.e. deciding between 0.030in. (0,41 mm) and 0.031in.
(0,79 mm), assume the larger figure as the criteria for selecting
the number of repair plies to use. That is, 3 plies rather than 2,

GENERAL REPAIR
1. General
Repairs given in this section are for structural damage exceeding the
limits shown in the Allowable Damage section. The repairs are written
to restore a part to it’s original strength and configuration as when
it was manufactured. Procedures to refinish a repaired area are also
given
2. Adhesive Preparation
Some repairs call for the use of certain adhesives. The following are
the procedures to use in the preparation of the adhesives.
A. EA956/L3 Adhesive
B. EA956 Adhesive
C. EA934NA Adhesive
D. EA9390 Resin
D. Both the original skin and the repair material must be clean
and dry before the repair can be started. Water on the surface
or in the materials will make the repair weak. All water must be
removed before the repair can be done. Use heat lamps at 230ºF-
250ºF for one hour.
Woven wire cloth is bonded to the perforated inner skin of the panel.

B. Before you start the repair, find which peel test (Step 27)
will be used. Make sure the test panel configuration and the
subsequent test specimens will agree to the applicable peel
test. All bonding procedures from Step 13 and steps 15 through
26 (i.e. cleaning and priming through the inspection) must be
applied at the same time. The same way applies to both the TP140
test panel and to the repair area. At step 27 the test panel
will be destructively tested to verify the quality of the
repair bond. If the test specimens fail the peel test, do not
repeat the repair, contact a Goodrich Customer Support
Representative for evaluation and disposition.

02-166 breather cloth RC3000-10 and one layer of CoMat
02-169 parting film to completely cover the CoMat 02-167
fiberglass cloth.
F. Weigh the test panel TP140. The test panel must increase in net
weight by 0.063 to 0.071 oz. (1,8 to 2,0 gm) when the coating
thickness is correct.
J. Lightly sand and repair area with CoMat 05-129 (320 grit)
aluminum oxide abrasive paper to remove any minor bumps in the
adhesive primer. Avoid sanding through to bare metal. Touch
application of adhesive primer is permitted for minor scratches
through the RMS058 adhesive primer. Allow 2 hours of air dry
following this type of application.
A. Prefit and cut new woven wire as necessary for the repair area.
Allow excess around perimeter (recommended 0.75 in. (18,0 mm),
trim before installation. (Refer to Fig. 205 to 206 and
reference Step 22).
NOTE: Repair woven wire warp and weft directions shall be cut
to conform with existing wire cloth orientation.
NOTE: Repair woven wire may be cut and spliced in order to fit
the contour without wrinking. (See Figure 206).
NOTE: Each woven wire splice must have an adhesive film barrier
strip. If the area of barrier strips reduce the total
acoustic area below the approved limit per SRM section
54-01-00, rearrange the woven wire splices to minimize
the use of barrier strips in an effort to minimize the
use of barrier strips hence reducing acoustic loss to
acceptable limits. Ideally, the barrier strips should be
placed over non-acoustic areas.
NOTE: For the adhesive film barrier strips, use RMS042, Type 2,
Grade B adhesive film. If grade B is not available, Grade
A film can be used as an alternative. If the adhesive
film barrier strips are made from Grade B film, two
layers will be needed; if made from the alternative Grade
A, use only one layer.
NOTE: The RMS042 adhesive film can be used after the adhesive
film reaches room temperature. Use the adhesive film
within 14 days after reaching room temperature.
A. Cut the RMS042 adhesive film into barrier strips to fit along
all cut edges of the woven wire, including under any splices.
(Refer to Fig. 207).

NOTE: Because the inner fairing and the forward frame have
complex shapes, it is recommended to make the fairing
segment and frame segment from a spare fairing and a
spare forward frame, respectively. This is not
required if the repair is contained only within Area
2. However, if damage is contained in Area 1 or Area 1
and 2 simultaneously it is necessary to make these
from spare components. Use laminated shim if necessary
to fill the spaces. Refer to VRS2179/VRS2180 for
removal and installation information of the forward
frame and inner fairing.
E. Heat treat the parts that are made from 2024-T aluminum alloy
to the T62 condition. Be careful not to heat treat parts that
are already in the 2024-T3 condition.
NOTE: You can use liquid shim and/or laminated shims to fill
the spaces between the matting parts. See Figure 210,
Note 3, for the limits.

mm). If the maximum thickness is more than 0.009 in. (0,23
mm) the cured surface may crack.
E. Remove the CoMat 02-178 Masking Tape from the edge of the
repair 20 minutes after you apply the final layer of the CoMat
07-160 ceramic coating to allow the edge of the coating to
feather itself onto the surface of the part.
NOTE: Some pinholes may occur in the coating and are acceptable.
If you find a large number of pinholes, it is an
indication that the repair surface was contaminated before
you applied the CoMat 07-160 Ceramic Coating. Remove the
coating in the affected area as described in this step and
apply the CoMat 07-160 Ceramic Coating again.
NOTE: The CoMat 07-160 Ceramic Coating will lose its viscosity
if the temperature is elevated too soon after application.
This will cause the coating to drip and sag off of the
repair area. The CoMat 07-160 Ceramic Coating is very
difficult to remove once it has cured. Make sure the
surface is dry to the touch before you raise the
temperature to cure the coating.
H. Clean the spray equipment within 15 minutes after you spray the
final layer of the CoMat 07-160 Ceramic Coating. Fully flush
and clean the spray equipment with CoMat 01-438 Solvent or
CoMat 01-031 Acetone.

07-098 Clear Polyurethane coating onto the cured CoMat 07-160
Ceramic Coating. Brush the CoMat 07-098 Clear Polyurethane a
minimum of 0.25 inch (6,35 mm) over the painted surface of the
part.
C. Before you handle or move the part, air-dry the CoMat 07-098
Clear Polyurethane coating for 15 minutes. Let the CoMat 07-098
Clear Polyurethane coating to cure dry to the touch for 3 hours
at 77°F (25°C). The CoMat 07-098 Clear Polyurethane coating is
fully cured 8 hours after it is applied. You can cure the CoMat

(2) The target CoMat 08-050 epoxy paste adhesive content for a
typical wet lay-up is 50% by weight. Therefore the weight
of the mixed adhesive should equal the weight of the
fabric. It is recommended that 20% be added to the gross
weight of the mixed adhesive to account for transfer
inefficiencies.
(3) Determine the weight of the resin and the weight of the
hardener.
EXAMPLE:
D. Lay each Sanding ply, each Repair Doubler ply and each Repair
Filler ply to the matching CoMat 02-168 non-porous parting
film.
F. Cover each repair fabric ply with the matching CoMat 02-168
non-porous parting film.
G. Press the mixed CoMat 08-050 epoxy paste adhesive through the
repair materials by working over the non-porous parting film
with a roller or squeegee. This process impregnates the repair
fabric with the mixed adhesive and removes entrapped air.
H. Work excess mixed adhesive to the edges of the fabric such that
the repair fabric weave is barely visible.
J. Make a template for each ply using transparent Mylar. Mark the
ply number and the ply orientation on each template. The
orientation should be the same as in the original lay-up. Refer
to Figure 204.
M. Apply light coat of CoMat 08-050 epoxy paste adhesive over the
repair area.
N. Remove the non-porous film from one side of the smallest ply of
the repair lay-up. Place the exposed face against the repair
area with the proper orientation and overlap around.
P. Remove CoMat 02-168 non-porous release film from the ply and
the nest larger ply of the lay-up. Place the next ply on the
repair area with the proper orientation and overlap all around.
NOTE: Make sure that the damaged area is free of any contaminants
or poor bonding will occur. If required, clean the repair
area with solvent (CoMat 01-438) and lint-free cloth (CoMat
02-099). Wipe the area dry with a clean piece of lint-free
cloth before the solvent evaporates.
NOTE: Make sure the warp direction of the repair and doubler plies
are the same as the existing ply they overlap.
A. Lay all repair plies into position. Verify ply for proper
stacking sequence and orientation.
C. Place CoMat 02-367 non porous film over the lay-up and use
roller or spatula to squeeze out air bubbles and excess resin.
A. Cure the repair area using a heat blanket on each side of the
repair.
C. Upon the coldest thermocouple reaching the 250° +/- 10°F (121°
+/- 5°C) temperature range, begin a 120-minute soak period.
Continuously monitor and record all thermocouples to make sure
the cure temperature range is maintained during soak period.
B. Use 0.192 in. (4,88 mm) drill bit for the three (3) middle
fastener holes and 0.169 in. (4,29 mm) drill bit for the two (2)
corner fastener holes of the vertical flange.
C. Use a lint free cloth (CoMat 02-099) made moist with solvent
(CoMat 01-438). Wipe the surfaces clean before the solvent
evaporates.

A. Mix the CoMat 07-160 Ceramic Coating Part A. Use a paint shaker
machine to mix thoroughly for four to six minutes at 72°F
(22°C).
NOTE: When shaking the CoMat 07-160 Ceramic Coating Part A for
more than 30 minutes at a time, it can become warm
causing reduced pot life. Allow the CoMat 07-160
Ceramic Coating Part A to cool to ambient temperature
before mixing it with CoMat 07-161 Part B. Prior to
mixing with CoMat 07-161 Part B, shake the CoMat 07-160
Ceramic Coating Part A for another 4 to 6 minutes.
NOTE: Do not shake the catalyzed mixture too much. Shaking the
mixed coating too much can cause heat to build up and
cause an exothermic reaction to occur. This will make
the resin cure faster than it should.

1. General
B. The common nozzle exhaust collector accepts the hot and cold
stream gas outflows. These outflows then go out to the
atmosphere through the common nozzle. The nozzle forms a
convergent duct which increases the speed of the mixed gases to
give forward thrust.
C. The engine exhaust cone forms the inner contour of the common
nozzle exhaust collector. It is made of welded titanium alloy
skin, an attachment ring and a closure cone.
D. The mixed exhaust system accepts two gas streams. The first is
the cold stream, which is fan bypass air. The second is the hot
gas stream, which comes from the turbine gas generator.
2. Description
(2) The inner duct forms a ring around the core engine outlet
nozzle. The front flange of the duct is used to install
the exhaust collector on the outer rear turbine case
flange.
