Airworthiness Directive 99-13-10
one-timeAirworthiness Directives; General Electric Aircraft Engines CF700 Series Turbofan Engines
What this AD requires
This amendment adopts a new airworthiness directive (AD), applicable to General Electric Aircraft Engines CF700 series turbofan engines, that requires replacement of existing fan guards with new, improved fan guards. This amendment is prompted by a report of uncontained fan blades which separated from the engine during an overspeed. The actions specified by this AD are intended to prevent an overspeed of the aft fan disk from resulting in an uncontained engine failure and damage to the aircraft.
Which aircraft AD 99-13-10 applies to
Whether AD 99-13-10 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.
