## Discrepancy

FACTORY INSTALLED SAFETY CABLE INSTALLED NEAR INTAKE BROKE AND DAMAGED COMPRESSOR SECTION. THIS IS A SECOND OCCURRENCE.  AFTER THE FIRST OCCURRENCE  ON MAY 8, 2023, N667RB / PCE-PR0353 STANDARD AERO EXPLAINED THE LEVEL OF DAMAGE COULD NOT POSSIBLY BE FROM THE MISSING SAFETY CABLE.  AFTER THE SECOND INCIDENT THE MANUFACTURE IS REVIEWING THE SB ALLOWING FOR THE USE OF SAFETY CABLE AND WORKING WITH STANDARD ON COVERING THE DAMAGES CAUSED BY THE CABLE INGESTION.   I HAVE PICTURES IN THE FAA IS INTERESTED AS WELL AS THE DOCUMENTED CONVERSATIONS WITH BOTH STANDARD AERO AND PRATT AND WHITNEY CANADA.
