Airworthiness Directive 2022-27-04
one-timeAirworthiness Directives; Pratt & Whitney Turbofan Engines
What this AD requires
The FAA is adopting a new airworthiness directive (AD) for all Pratt & Whitney (PW) PW1519G, PW1521G, PW1521G-3, PW1521GA, PW1524G, PW1524G-3, PW1525G, and PW1525G-3 model turbofan engines. This AD was prompted by an uncommanded dual engine shutdown upon landing, resulting in compromised braking capability due to the loss of engine power and hydraulic systems. This AD requires removal from service of certain electronic engine control (EEC) full authority digital engine control (FADEC) software versions and replacement with updated software. The FAA is issuing this AD to address the unsafe condition on these products.
Which aircraft AD 2022-27-04 applies to
Whether AD 2022-27-04 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.
