The engine fleet has achieved a dispatch rating of 99.9% with 225,000 flight hours in less than two years of service.The fan midshaft cracking and fracturing incidents were traced last month to a new, lead-free coating that allowed the component to corrode rapidly under certain conditions. GE switched to a leaded coating already used on the <a href="http://www.flightglobal.com/landingpage/GE90.html">GE90</a> to correct the problem</blockquote>
