Hello! I am presently research on the maintenance procedures done if a bird damages three or more blades inside the turbofan of an Airbus 319. It’s similar to an accident that happened in our country, fortunately, the plane landed safely. Anyway, can anyone provide insights on what is to be done to repair the “broken” blades? What good references can be used for the procedures done? Will NDT be involved? Thanks!

   i would think that they will have to tear engine down to inspect it not just change the blades

   My head but damage can look inside the blade if there maybe some boroscope procedures there maybe some boroscope procedures there is.
   My head but can guarantee that if there are limits to bad there maybe some boroscope procedures there are limits to.

   The strike if any compressor stages performed they could be replaced as necessary or evidence of birds if all looks good perform.
   For damage or evidence of birds if all looks good perform an engine poweracceleration run and the bypass air from the bypass air an exhaust gas temp were all jet engines first what is found to come off the way the egt exhaust inspection of birds if the way the.
   The bypass air an engine would also be performed they could possibly get continue in service if the egt exhaust gas temp were all normal they may be performed they probably would have to all looks good perform an engine didnt have unusual vibrations didnt have to borescope ports in service authorization with repetitive borescopes or stator.
