Pratt & Whitney Canada has issued a service bulletin recommending aircraft engine hardware to be sent to Vibrant Corporation for inspection. Pratt & Whitney Canada S.B. No. 1762 recommends that certain compressor turbine (CT) blades from several PT6A engine models be inspected with Vibrant\u2019s Process Compensated Resonance Testing (PCRT) for dimensional acceptability and continued use. Affected engine models include the PT6A-34, PT6A-36AG, PT6A-34B, PT6A-36, PT6A-114 and PT6A-114A.<\/p>\n
