What was found

PILOT REPORTED LOSS OF FLI INDICATION ON APPROACH TO THE BASE. AFTER LANDING AND ROLLING THE THROTTLE TO IDLE, A FLASHING AMBER GOV LIGHT WAS ILLUMINATED. UPON INSPECTION OF THE T4 HARNESS , I FOUND THE T4 HARNESS WAS DAMAGED. AFTER GETTING A VIDEO SCOPE TO INSPECT FURTHER, ANOMALIES WERE FOUND INSIDE THE MODULE 3 OF THE ENGINE. VIDEOS, AND PICTURES FROM THE ENGINE WERE SENT TO TECH REP RICH FULMER AD IT WAS DETERMINED THAT FOR SURE A MODULE 3 WOULD BE NEEDED AND THE POWER TURBINE BLADES WOULD ALSO NEED TO BE INSPECTED.
