The IBR was performed on the number one engine of a Learjet 60 aircraft in a matter of hours. Normally, this inspection involves flying the aircraft to a Pratt & Whitney service center and removing the aircraft from service for approximately three days.
Performing the inspection on-site reduced operating costs and down time on the aircraft. A team of three Pratt & Whitney technicians traveled to the aircraft and brought with them all needed tools to perform the inspection. The inspection was complied with as if the aircraft had traveled to a P&W service center. The inspection showed no major discrepancies and the aircraft was returned to flying status at the end of the day.
