## Discrepancy

DURING THE FIRST 600 HOUR ENG INSPECTION, PERFORMED AXIAL COMPRESSOR BLADE INSPECTION CHECK FOR DAMAGE & SERVICEABILITY, DISCOVERED ONE BLADE HAD FOD DAMAGE AT THE TIP THAT EXCEEDED THE REPAIR LIMITS FOR LEVEL 2 TECHNICIANS.  FURTHER DAMAGE TO THE ENG IS UNKNOWN AT THIS TIME DUE TO WAITING ON TOOLING TO COMPLETE FURTHER ANALYSIS OF THE INTERNAL PORTION OF THE ENG.  INSPECTED ENG COWLING & FDC AERO FILTER FOR DEBRIS & DAMAGE THAT COULD HAVE RESULTED IN FOD DAMAGE TO ENG BUT DID NOT FIND ANY DISCREPANCIES OR ANOMALIES.
