The compressor could be damaged beyond repair. Likewise, tools left in engine intakes could be drawn in causing damage. Prior to starting an engine therefore, the AME should ensure that all tools used in the vicinity of the intakes are free of any foreign objects and the area in front of intakes should be cleared of any loose stones or rubbish . Examples of the typical types of damage to be found on compressor blades is shown in Figure and possible causes of damage and the terminology used in Figure.
