Would it be possible to convert a small turbojet, say a Turbomeca Marbore, into a turbofan? Apparently the first fans were modified turbojets. P&W made kits to convert one of their jets to a fan.
The GE90 apparently uses carbon fiber blades in the fan section of the engine. I'm not talking about production runs. Think single engine personal jet.

Thanks
