Airworthiness Directive 01-12942
one-timeAirworthiness Directives; GE Aircraft Engines CJ610 Series Turbojet and CF700 Turbofan Engines
What this AD requires
This amendment supersedes an existing airworthiness directive (AD) that is applicable to GE Aircraft Engines (GEAE) CJ610 series turbojet and CF700 series turbofan engines that currently requires removal of certain unapproved parts before further flight. This amendment requires removal of additional unapproved parts. This amendment is prompted by the discovery by the FAA of additional unapproved parts not listed in the original AD that have been introduced into the field and might be installed on the affected engines. The actions specified in this AD are intended to prevent the use of unapproved parts which could lead to an uncontained engine failure and damage to the airplane.
Which aircraft AD 01-12942 applies to
Applies to GE Aircraft Engines CJ610 series turbojet and CF700 series turbofan engines (confirmed via Federal Register 01-12942 title); supersedes an earlier AD and requires before-further-flight removal/replacement of additional unapproved parts (compressor drive shaft, turbine torque rings, compressor stage spacers) listed by P/N and SN in AD Tables I-II, to prevent uncontained engine failure. Parts list truncated in the source excerpt (cuts off mid-table).
Whether AD 01-12942 actually applies to your aircraft (by serial and installed parts) and whether it’s already complied with comes from that aircraft’s records.
Supersession
Supersedes AD 2000-01-09.
How AD compliance is recorded
A valid compliance record (14 CFR 43.9) states:
Tailplate reads a tail number’s logbooks and matches every applicable AD — including this one — to its compliance evidence, with recurring next-due dates computed.
