You and I are both right, but I should have been a bit more concise. I was referring to the remedial derating of the engine (i.e. reducing the RPM range out of resonance). This reduction enabled the jets to remain flying whilst the Rolls Royce engine designers stood in a circle taking turns to kick each others bums for overlooking the "not so obvious" and trying to explain to the bean counters why this "whoopsie" was going to cost several million dollars to fix. happy New Year to you all John -----Original Message-----
