DESCRIPTION OF DAMAGE:
H.P. Vane Segment 1. Category 4 damage acceptable.
Subsequent borescope inspection interval: 400 hours Max. For these more frequent borescope inspections,
it is recommended, where possible, to borescope through the igniter ports instead of the fuel nozzle ports
which involves disturbing the fuel system. Carry out a detailed borescope inspection of the combustion
chamber, HP turbine blades, HP turbine shrouds, LP turbine vanes and LP turbine blades for evidence of
widespread damage. Re evaluate segment(s) during subsequent inspections to see if the condition has
degraded to category 5 damage. Damage of this type may be caused by deviating fuel nozzle flow or
prolonged use of vane segments which are in an unrepairable condition. If continued service is planned,
fuel nozzles are recommended to be changed as a precaution in order to minimize the possibility of further
downstream damage occurring.
