GE Aviation says its remote diagnostics services "contributed
substantially" to finding three cracked fan blades among the thousands
of engines it analyzed during 2008.

The engine maker revealed the statistics in comments to the US FAA in
response to a proposed airworthiness directive (AD) for its CF34-3A
and -3B series turbofan engines.
