Abstract

A method of repairing a combustion chamber assembly 32 from an axial flow gas turbine engine 20 is disclosed. Various details are developed which facilitate repair of the combustion chamber assembly of the engine. In one detailed embodiment, a laser beam 80 separated the bulkhead of the combustion chamber assembly from the remainder of the assembly to allow independent repair of the bulkhead and the remainder of the assembly.
