Airworthiness Directives; General Electric Company CF6-50 and CF6-80C2 Turbofan Engines

What this AD requires

This amendment adopts a new airworthiness directive (AD), that is applicable to General Electric Company CF6-50 and CF6-80C2 turbofan engines. This amendment requires replacement of certain existing CF6-50 and CF6-80C2 low pressure turbine (LPT) shrouds with new design LPT shrouds. This amendment is prompted by 37 LPT uncontained events on the CF6-50, 24 uncontained events on the CF6-80C2 engine models since 1993, and the development and certification of newly designed shrouds that will improve LPT containment capability. The actions specified by this AD are intended to prevent uncontained engine failure and possible airplane damage.

Low-pressure-turbine shroud replacement (stages 2-4 on CF6-80C2, stages 1-4 on CF6-50) at next shroud piece-part exposure, no later than July 31, 2010; CF6-80C2 engines already configured with LPT case P/N 1647M68G15 plus the listed original shroud P/Ns require no further action.

Whether AD 2003-02-07 actually applies to your aircraft (by serial and installed parts) and whether it’s already complied with comes from that aircraft’s records.

How AD compliance is recorded

A valid compliance record (14 CFR 43.9) states:

Method of compliance — The specific action taken (inspected, replaced, modified) and to what revision.

Date — When the work was done.

Aircraft time — Total time in service / tach at compliance — how recurring next-due is computed.

Signature & certificate — The A&P/IA who returned it to service, with certificate number.

Is AD 2003-02-07 complied with on your aircraft?

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.

Applicability is derived from the FAA directive corpus and is advisory, not a legal airworthiness determination. Compliance is established only from an aircraft’s actual records.
