I think the airforce should tell pratt & whitney to replace the faulty turbine blades and should get replacement turbine blades for the F-16 before another turbine blade should fail.

Actually, Pratt & Whitney is providing the replacement blades, and is paying the tab for the Eddy Current inspections. Although this is a "supplier" problem, P&W has taken the lead to correct this error.
