A method of repairing a casing for a gas turbine engine, wherein the casing has a wall extending generally axially, and between at least one radially extending flange, the radially extending flange being formed with a plurality of bolt holes, includes the steps of removing a portion of the flange including at least one bolt hole. The removed portion is associated with a defect and a remaining portion of the flange includes at least one non-removed bolt hole. A replacement portion is obtained to replace the removed portion. The replacement portion is secured in an opening left in the flange by the removed portion. A repaired gas turbine engine casing is also disclosed.

Flange partial section replacement repair

A case for a gas turbine engine incudes a radial flange with a partial scallop along an inner diameter of the radial flange. A case assembly for a gas turbine engine incudes a first case with a first radial flange with a partial scallop along an inner diameter of the first radial flange, the partial scallop adjacent to a first aperture through the first radial flange and a second case with a second radial flange with a second aperture through the second radial flange, the second radial flange mountable to the first radial flange at an interface such that the second aperture is axially aligned with the first aperture and a seal lip that extends from the second case interfaces with said first case at a longitudinal interface.
