Airworthiness Directive 2015-21119
one-timeAirworthiness Directives; GE Aviation Czech s.r.o. Turboprop Engines
What this AD requires
We are adopting a new airworthiness directive (AD) for certain serial number (S/N) GE Aviation Czech s.r.o. M601E-11, M601E-11A, and M601F turboprop engines with certain part number (P/N) gas generator turbine (GGT) blades, installed. This AD requires removing from service any affected engine with certain GGT blades installed. This AD was prompted by the determination that certain GGT blades are susceptible to blade failure. We are issuing this AD to prevent GGT blade failure, which could lead to engine failure and loss of the airplane.
Which aircraft AD 2015-21119 applies to
Applies only to the specific serial-numbered M601E-11, M601E-11A, and M601F engines listed in the AD, each with gas generator turbine (GGT) blade P/N M601-3372.6 or M601-3372.51 installed.
Whether AD 2015-21119 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.
