Airworthiness Directive 2012-02-05
one-timeAirworthiness Directives; Thielert Aircraft Engines GmbH Reciprocating Engines
What this AD requires
We are adopting a new airworthiness directive (AD) for all Thielert Aircraft Engines GmbH (TAE) TAE 125-02-99 and TAE 125-02-114 reciprocating engines. This AD was prompted by in-flight engine shutdown incidents reported on airplanes equipped with TAE 125 engines. We are issuing this AD to prevent in- flight engine shutdown, which could result in loss of control of the airplane.
Which aircraft AD 2012-02-05 applies to
Applies only to engines with friction disk, P/N 05-7211-K010201, installed.
Whether AD 2012-02-05 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:
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.
