@5:22 "… allows the fan to recenter itself around a new center of rotation…" What is the source for this explanation? It seems erroneous. I don't see any provision for its recentering to a new center of rotation. Such a provision would be unnecessary as the fan will stop rotating when it is disconnected from the driveshaft.

The LRD only activates if the fan disc is sufficiently out of balance. Once the out of balance disc is removed, then the rest of the rotating assembly will start rotating around the new Cg, which should be much more centered than the out of balance one. No additional provision or device necessary. Also the fan should continue to windmill, not come to a complete stop.

I think Petter really pushing this out to the masses in the Aviation industry is helping to get people to talk about this. I wouldn’t want to be on a Max jet where that fluid gets released in the cabin. Boeing needs to step it up and make some mod to those engines to push that fluid away from the cabin/cockpit air intake tubes. 15 quarts of fluid even if half makes it in to the cabin or cockpit would be a complete mess and possible lethal situation.
