Airworthiness Directives; Pratt & Whitney Division Engines
The FAA is adopting a new airworthiness directive (AD) for all Pratt & Whitney Division (PW) Model PW4052, PW4056, PW4060, PW4060A, PW4060C, PW4062, PW4062A, PW4152, PW4156, PW4156A, PW4158, PW4460, and PW4462 engines. This AD was prompted by multiple reports of tailpipe fire, loss of thrust control, and engine in-flight shutdown due to undetected deterioration of pressure burner (Pb) sensors. This AD requires repla…
Airworthiness Directives; Pratt & Whitney Division Engines
The FAA is adopting a new airworthiness directive (AD) for certain Pratt & Whitney Division (PW) Model PW4074D, PW4077D, PW4084D, PW4090, and PW4090-3 engines. This AD was prompted by the discovery of a quality escape involving incorrect shot peening on certain high- pressure compressor (HPC) drum rotor disk assemblies. This AD requires visually inspecting the HPC drum rotor disk assembly for incorrect shot peen cov…
Airworthiness Directives; Pratt & Whitney Division Engines
The FAA is superseding Airworthiness Directive (AD) 2018-02- 10, which applied to certain Pratt & Whitney Division (PW) Model PW4074, PW4074D, PW4077, PW4077D, PW4084D, PW4090, and PW4090-3 engines. AD 2018-02-10 required performing repetitive fluorescent penetrant inspections (FPIs) to detect cracks in the outer diffuser case (ODC), removal of any ODC that fails inspection, and updating the mandatory inspections in…
Airworthiness Directives; Pratt & Whitney Division Engines
The FAA is superseding Airworthiness Directive (AD) 2018-21- 11, which applied to all Pratt & Whitney Division (PW) Model PW4074D, PW4077D, PW4084D, PW4090, and PW4090-3 engines with a low-pressure compressor (LPC) fan hub, part number (P/N) 51B821 or P/N 52B521, installed. AD 2018-21-11 required performing repetitive eddy current inspections (ECIs) and fluorescent penetrant inspections (FPIs) for cracks in certain…
Airworthiness Directives; Pratt & Whitney Division (PW) Turbofan Engines
We are adopting a new airworthiness directive (AD) for certain Pratt & Whitney Division (PW) PW4074, PW4074D, PW4077, PW4077D, PW4084D, PW4090, and PW4090-3 turbofan engines. This AD was prompted by an in-flight failure of a 1st-stage low-pressure compressor (LPC) blade. This AD requires initial and repetitive thermal acoustic imaging (TAI) inspections for cracks in certain 1st-stage LPC blades and removal of those…
Airworthiness Directives; Pratt & Whitney Division (PW) Turbofan Engines
We are adopting a new airworthiness directive (AD) for all Pratt & Whitney Division (PW) PW4074D, PW4077D, PW4084D, PW4090, and PW4090-3 turbofan engines with a low-pressure compressor (LPC) fan hub, part number (P/N) 51B821 or P/N 52B521, installed. This AD was prompted by updated low-cycle fatigue analysis techniques that indicate certain LPC fan hubs could crack before their published life limit. This AD requires…
Airworthiness Directives; Pratt & Whitney Division (PW) PW4000 Series Turbofan Engines
We are adopting a new airworthiness directive (AD) for certain PW4000 turbofan engines. This AD was prompted by an updated low-cycle fatigue (LCF) life analysis performed by PW. This AD requires removing certain part number (P/N) high-pressure turbine (HPT) stage 1 and HPT stage 2 airseals and HPT stage 1 airseal rings before their published life limit and establishes a new lower life limit for these parts. We are i…
