Abstract
A system and method for nose cone edge delamination repair is provided. A nose cone may comprise an outer skirt having an aft edge, a flange, and a pin landing. The system and method may comprise trimming the aft edge of the nose cone to form a repaired edge. A first layer of fiberglass may be placed over repaired edge. A second layer of fiber glass may be placed over the first layer and the repaired edge. The first layer and second layer may be trimmed to create a spot face to allow for lower tolerances when installing the nose cone into a gas turbine engine.
