there are 2 issues
1) the liner issue , this issue affects the neo and the cseries , the fix is in and the 8 cseries flying likely have already had the liner replaced or soon to be
2|) the carbon seal issue, this issue only affects the neo so far, p&w has ordered inspections of the pw1500g at 2000 hrs as precautionary measure, there is also certificed fix for this as of apr 12th but probably not required for bomber
some of these pw1500g must have passed the 2000hr mark....this is what would sure be nice to hear the results of these borescope inspections
so looks like the precautionary check at 2000 hrs confirmed that yes indeed all the problems that airbus model has do also affect the pw1500
