FOR REFERENCE ONLY
Introduction Borescope inspection is an important practice on any aircraft. Inspection requirements vary by engine type, and in-service activity. Additionally, an inspection may also be called when performance has started to lag.
Whenever you perform your inspection, a special focus needs to fall on the engine and techniques required. A modern jet engine is made to withstand extreme circumstances along with efficient and prolonged use, but they are still subject to damage and wear. Routine inspection and maintenance can help prevent most instances of engine failure and prolong the life of the engine in service. During engine borescope inspection the operator can spot issues that indicate future, or imminent failure.
During a complete inspection using a borescope, most issues can be found before they become an issue. This module has been prepared as part of your continuation training.
Remember to always refer to the correct and current issue of the AMM prior and during an inspection. For training purposes please study the information from the aircraft maintenance manual attached.

(g) Attach the applicable borescope to the light cable, or attach the flexible borescope to the
light source box.
(h) Set the power supply to the ON position.
SUBTASK 72-00-00-846-202-R02
(2) Do these steps to use the borescope inspection equipment:
NOTE: After the removal of the borescope plug, it is possible for the HPNGV support ring heat
shield to move on the support ring. There can be axial or circumferential movement
and the two are caused by deterioration of the heat shield. This movement can close
part of the borescope port 'G' on the HP turbine. You can position the heat shield
correctly with your hands to permit the borescope to be put into the port. The engine is
satisfactory with a heat shield that is loose.
(a) Put the borescope through the applicable opening for the inspection to be done.
(b) Turn the IP or the HP system for the compressor or turbine inspection
(PAGEBLOCK 72-00-00/201).
(c) Refer to the applicable inspection.
1) IP Compressor
2) HP Compressor
3) Combustion liners and HPNGV
a) If the inspection through the fuel spray nozzle aperture, do the steps that
follow:
<1> Do an inspection through the fuel spray nozzle aperture.
<a> Remove the borescope stop adapter, if it is attached.
CAUTION
MAKE SURE THE BORESCOPE DOES NOT MOVE
FORWARD OF THE HP OUTLET GUIDE VANES. IF
YOU DO NOT, THE BORESCOPE WILL HIT THE HP
COMPRESSOR STAGE 6 ROTOR BLADES WHEN
THE HP SYSTEM IS TURNED.
MAKE SURE THE FLEXIBLE BORESCOPE DOES
NOT CATCH THE INTERNAL PARTS OF THE
ENGINE.
IF YOU DO NOT DO THIS, DAMAGE TO THE
BORESCOPE COULD OCCUR. ALSO, DAMAGE TO
THE POWER PLANT COULD OCCUR IF THE
BORESCOPE BECOMES BROKEN INSIDE THE
ENGINE.
<b> Insert the flexible borescope through the fuel spray nozzle
aperture and pass it carefully through the outer diffuser of the
combustion liner head section. Then, pass the borescope
between the HP outer guide vanes at their inner platform.
<c> Rotate the HP system (PAGEBLOCK 72-00-00/201).

A. General
(1) This task provides the instructions on the inspection of the H.P. compressor blades for the
conditions that follow:
(a) Airfoil cracks, nicks, and tears.
(b) Airfoil dents and bends.
(c) Material loss on the airfoil leading and trailing edges.
(d) Airfoil tip damage and discoloration.
(2) It is not possible to examine these areas of the H.P. compressor:
(a) The rear of the 4th-stage rotor blades.
(b) The front of the 5th-stage rotor blades.
(c) The rear of the 6th-stage rotor blades.
(3) The access location, the area that can be viewed and the number of blades for each
compressor stage are as follows and (Table 605):
Table 605/72-00-00-993-811-R02 HP Compressor Inspection Access

SUBTASK 72-00-00-846-155-R02
(1) If not already done, do the procedure to prepare the airplane for the inspection.
SUBTASK 72-00-00-496-156-R02
(2) Attach the tool with which you turn the HP system (TASK 72-00-00-982-026-R00).
SUBTASK 72-00-00-946-199-R02
(3) If not already done, do the procedure to prepare the borescope equipment for the inspection.
SUBTASK 72-00-00-296-246-R02
(4) Examine the compressor blades for damage with the limits that follow:
NOTE: If you find damage that extends from one zone into another, compare the chord width
of the damage in each zone with the limit for that zone. All stages of the HP
compressor rotor blades are made with local bends at the tip and the root. These
bends are different to the bends or curls caused by impact damage.
DHI 113-120 PRE SB RB211-72-C230
NOTE: If damage exists that either requires reinspection or engine rejection, use a printed
copy of Figure 608, Sheet 5 and/or sheet 6, as applicable, to map the location of each
damaged blade.
DHI 101-121, 301-999 PRE SB RB211-72-C230; PHASE II COMBUSTION
(a) Damage is permitted to the limits that follow:
1) Accept missing material up to a depth of 0.015 in. (0.381 mm) with no related
cracks.
2) The material missing is from a related repair.

(1) Remove the engine from service for these conditions:
(a) It was not possible to examine a minimum of 90% of all stages of the HP compressor
rotor path liners.
(b) On one individual stage, the liner material has a total missing area greater than 6.20 sq.
inches (4000.0 sq. mm).
(c) One individual area of material loss is greater than 2.325 sq. inches (1500.0 sq. mm).
NOTE: It is not necessary to measure individual areas of lining loss less than 0.078 sq.
inch (50 sq. mm).
NOTE: Compressor rotor path liner “drop out” can leave “cliff edge” features that are
indicated by areas of shadow.
(d) The nominal width and area between the blades of the rotor path liner are given below.
This will help to calculate the damage to the rotor path liner.

NOTE: This procedure is a scheduled maintenance task.
A. General
(1) This task provides the instructions on how to examine the High Pressure Nozzle Guide Vanes
(HPNGV).
(2) After you do 5 inspections at the intervals given in the limits that follow, you can multiply the
inspection interval by two with this condition:
(a) There is no more deterioration and no new defects are found.
(3) To help you make an estimate of the damage, the acceptance zones on the blades are
provided in this task.
(4) It is not necessary to examine the convex surface of the HPNGV airfoil. You can see some of
the NGV convex surfaces when you do an inspection of the HP turbine blades. If damage is
seen, use the acceptance limits that are given.

9. High Pressure (HP) Turbine Inspection
(Figure 614 and Figure 615)
NOTE: This procedure is a scheduled maintenance task.
A. General
(1) This task provides the instructions on the HP turbine and the limits that you can accept.
(2) Use an impact extractor if it is not easy to remove the plugs.
(3) To help you make an estimate of the damage, the acceptance zones on the blades are given in
the HP turbine blades figures.
(4) Examine the borescope access holes.
NOTE: Deterioration of the high pressure nozzle guide vane support ring heatshield may allow
axial and circumferential movement of the heatshield over the support ring. After
removal of the borescope plug this may partially block the HP turbine borescope hole
"G". The heatshield may be repositioned by hand to allow ease of entry of the
borescope. Looseness of the heatshield will not affect engine performance.

C. Procedure
SUBTASK 72-00-00-846-138-R04
(1) Prepare the borescope equipment:
(a) Use the switch at the rear of the light source box [1] to select the correct voltage.
(b) Connect the power supply to the light source box.
(c) Set the intensity switch to the lowest light setting.
(d) Do a functional check of the light source box.
1) Set the power supply switch to ON and make sure the red indication light comes on.
Return the switch to OFF.
(e) Attach the light cable [3] to the light source box.
NOTE: The flexible borescope has an integral light cable and does not require the
attachment of light cable [3].
(f) If you use the portable light source , attach the cable [11] to the portable light source box
[10].
NOTE: The portable light source is used with all borescopes except 1702319.
(g) Select and attach a borescope to a light cable, or attach a flexible borescope to a light
source box.
(h) Set the power supply switch to ON.
SUBTASK 72-00-00-846-140-R04
(2) Do these steps to use the borescope equipment:
NOTE: Deterioration of the HPNGV support ring heatshield may allow axial and
circumferential movement of the heatshield over the support ring, after removal of the
borescope plug. This may block access to the HP turbine borescope hole 'K'. The
heatshield may be repositioned by hand to allow ease of entry of borescope.
Looseness of the heatshield will not affect engine integrity.
(a) Put the borescope through the applicable opening for the inspection to be done.
(b) Rotate the IP or HP system (PAGEBLOCK 72-00-00/201), if you do either the
compressor or turbine system inspection.
(c) Refer to the applicable inspection task given in this procedure:

(2) Do an inspection of the IP Compressor Blades (Figure 604).
NOTE: To examine the 1st-stage IP blades, use a light source through the LP and IP
compressor inlet guide vanes.
NOTE: If you find damage which extends between different zones, compare the chordal width
of the damage in each zone to the limit for that zone.
NOTE: If damage exists that either requires reinspection or engine rejection, use a printed
copy of Figure 605, Sheet 2 and/or Sheet 3, as applicable, to map the location of each
damaged blade.
(a) Damage is permitted to the limits that follow:
1) Material missing up to a depth of 0.015 inch (0.38mm) with no related cracks.
2) Nicks and tears from the leading and trailing edges up to 0.015 inch (0.38mm) in
depth with no related cracks.
NOTE: If you use digital optical measuring equipment, this limit is increased to
0.025 in (0,64mm).
3) The material missing is from a previous repair.
NOTE: Missing material from a previous repair will have a smooth contour
appearance.
4) Dents or bends on the 1st stage compressor blades are permitted to the limits that
follow:
a) No related cracks, nicks or tears.
b) No more than 25 blades with dents or bends along the leading edge that are
more than 1.0 inch (25.4 mm) in radial length.

more than 0.25 inch (6.35 mm) away from the correct airfoil position.
d) No more than 10 blades with dents or bends in an arc of 12 blades.
e) No more than 4 blades, in an arc of 12 blades, with dents that change the
shape of the blade more than 0.25 inch (6.35 mm) away from the correct airfoil
position.
f) Reject any blade that touches a different blade.
5) Dents or bends on the 2nd stage to 6th stage compressor blades are permitted to
the limits that follow:
a) No related cracks, nicks or tears.
b) No large bends if the blade touched a different blade.
6) Tip damage in zone D
a) Heat discoloration because of blade tip rub is permitted.
b) Burrs on the trailing edge tip due to blade tip rub is permitted if they are on 25
percent or less of the blade chord width.
c) Bends or curls are permitted if there is no other damage.

A. General
(1) This task provides the instructions on how to examine the HP compressor blades for the
conditions that follow:
(a) Airfoil cracks, nicks or tears.
(b) Airfoil dents and bends.
(c) Material loss on the airfoil leading and trailing edges.
(d) Airfoil tip damage and discoloration.
(2) It is not possible to examine these areas of the HP compressor:
(a) The rear of the 4th-stage rotor blades.
(b) The front of the 5th-stage rotor blades.
(c) The rear of the 6th-stage rotor blades.
(3) The access location, the view area, and the number of blades for each compressor stage are
as follows (Table 603):
Table 603/72-00-00-993-835-R00 HP Compressor Inspection Access
Access View Area Number of Blades
HP 1S *[1] Rear - Stage 1 57
Front - Stage 2 82
HP 2S *[1] Rear - Stage 2 82
Front - Stage 3 94
----- Rear - Stage 3 94
----- Front - Stage 4 97
HP 5S Rear - Stage 5 76
Front - Stage 6 74
*[1] Borescope access bosses HP 1S and HP 2S will not look in the center position of the adjacent thickened section of
the case. This is acceptable.
(4) To help you make an estimate of the damage, go to the acceptance zones in Figure 606.

SUBTASK 72-00-00-296-214-R04
(1) Do an inspection of the HP compressor blades:
NOTE: If you find damage that extends from one zone into another, compare the chord width
of the damage in each zone with the limit for that zone. All stages of the HP
compressor rotor blades are made with local bends at the tip and the root. These
bends are different to the bends or curls caused by impact damage.
NOTE: For all damage that is more than the limits, do not operate the engine until after you
repair the engine.
DHI 113-120 POST SB RB211-72-C230
NOTE: If damage exists that either requires reinspection or engine rejection, use a printed
copy of Figure 606, Sheet 5 and/or Sheet 6, as applicable, to map the location of each
damaged blade.

9. High Pressure (HP) Turbine Inspection
(Figure 611)
NOTE: This procedure is a scheduled maintenance task.
A. General
(1) The subsequent operations give the HP turbine inspection procedure and the standards (limits)
you can accept.
(2) This task provides the instructions on how to examine the High Pressure (HP) turbine for these
conditions:
(a) Burns or oxidation
(b) Cracks
(c) Dents
(d) Erosion
(e) Foreign object damage
(f) Interlock damage.
(3) To help you make an estimate of the damage, the acceptance zones on the blades are given in
the task.
(4) You can use an impact extractor if it is not easy to remove the access plugs for the borescope.
(5) You will do the inspection through borescope access holes.
NOTE: Deterioration of the HP NGV support ring heatshield may allow axial and
circumferential movement of the heatshield over the support ring, after removal of the
borescope plug. This may partially obscure the HP turbine borescope hole 'G'. The
heatshield may be repositioned by hand to allow ease of entry of borescope.
Looseness of the heatshield will not affect engine integrity.
