The fan looks fine though, at least the half you can see in the picture. Odd, maybe it sucked up a drone.

I have had prop separation in flight, and a cylinder separation from the case causing a dead stick landing, coincidentally in Philadelphia.

With my wife and three kids and a dog on board at the time. Fantastic ATC and tower there. Cleared everything below and gave an immediate vector for the closest active. The worst part was waiting to be towed off the runway because that’s when they all woke up and wanted to know why we were just sitting there?

The plane was at about 38,000 ft when the engine broke apart. I think that is too high for a drone.
