Someone faked the actual turbine blades?

Fake employees and fake certificates certifying quality of engine parts from nuts and bolts to turbine blades in 33,000 engines.

I watch the Crime Channel and the Plane Crash Channel religiously (it keeps me off the streets). There's been at least one horrible crash caused by an improperly manufactured engine fan blade having exploded in flight. Actually...there was also an A380 that almost crashed because one of its engines (Rolls Royce) exploded in flight. They say that it was only luck and an incredibly skilled cockpit crew that prevented it from going down.
