  7.  @wasidanatsali6374  Probably the lift fan, I guess that will now be a pre flight check! Interesting question, does anybody get up a ladder and look into the lift fan on walk around?

  8.  @wasidanatsali6374  It is hard to see debris ion top of the lift fan unless you get up a ladder and look in to it, anything loose might have been seen from ground level.
