## Narrative

As the FAA filed it, in capitals; the FAA replaces private details with ^PRIVACY DATA OMITTED^.

NARRATIVE: THE NO. 1 ENGINE TURBINE OUTLET TEMPERATURE (TOT) INCREASED TO 800 DEGREES IN CRUISE FLIGHT. THE PILOT REDUCED THE N2 RPM OF THE NO. 1 ENGINE, LOWERING THE TOT TO 750 DEGREES, AND CONTINUED THE FLIGHT TO THE PLANNED DESTINATION. MAINTENANCE FOUND A PIECE OF FIBERGLASS CHAFE TAPE (APPROXIMATELY 4 INCHES X 4 INCHES) PARTIALLY OBSTRUCTING THE ENGINE INLET. PRELIMINARY INSPECTION OF THE ENGINE COMPRESSOR SECTION DID NOT REVEAL DAMAGE. THE ENGINE WAS REMOVED FROM THE AIRCRAFT TO COMPLY WITH THE MANUFACTURER'S SPECIAL INSPECTION PROCEDURE REGARDING ENGINE INLET OBSTRUCTION. THERE WAS NO INJURY AND NO DAMAGE TO THE AIRCRAFT. A MALFUNCTION OR DEFECT REPORT WILL BE SUBMITTED FOLLOWING THE COMPLETION OF THE REQUIRED INSPECTIONS.

From the FAA Accident/Incident Data System. Reports are matched to registry aircraft by N-number and event date, checked against the reported make and model; the registry's history has gaps, so older matches can be wrong. Compare the reported make and model. For accidents, the NTSB's own investigation is the fuller record.
