Debunked: Claim MH 17 wreckage engine fan is wrong size

It would seem they have missed that these fan engines have many stages and that the larger 1st stage fan section not designed for heat or force has been destroyed in the crash.

The smaller fan with the large number of closely spaced blades is from the low pressure turbine at the back of the engine
