  "textContent": "A system and method for inspecting fan blade clearances in a fan stator module are presented. The method includes rotating a fan rotor assembly that includes an attached bracket situated between adjacent fan blades connected to the fan rotor assembly. The bracket includes a laser module and an inclinometer configured to measure a circumferential position of the laser module. The method further includes projecting a laser beam from the laser module to the fan case to determine a distance measurement between the laser module and the fan case at multiple circumferential points around the fan case. The distance measurement and circumferential position data is processed by a computing device to determine a clearance distance between a fan blade and the fan case.",
