Allegiant Air, an all-jet passenger airline, has implemented Vibrant Corporation\u2019s Process Compensated Resonance Testing (PCRT) for non-destructive inspection of first stage turbine blades for the JT8D turbofan engine. \u201cThis is a great example of a turnkey PCRT solution for a\u00a0new customer,\u201d said Vibrant Director of Operations Greg Weaver. \u201cOur extensive experience with the JT8D allowed us to begin automated inspection as soon as Allegiant\u2019s blades arrived.\u201d The JT8D powers Allegiant\u2019s fleet of MD-80 series aircraft. Vibrant\u2019s FAA-approved PCRT inspection for JT8D turbine blades detects material changes due to overtemperature exposure, cracks, corrosion and geometrical defects.<\/p>\n
