False indication
Real defect !
Insitu Compressor Blade inspection
• Examination: Standard Endoscopy shows indication on blade airfoil surface
• Evaluation After FPI: FPI Endoscopy determines that;
1) the indication is false
2) a previously non-visible defect (crack) exists in airfoil filet radius to blade platform
Standard Endoscopy FPI Endoscopy
