Airworthiness Directives; Pratt & Whitney Canada Corp. (P&WC) Models PW305A and PW305B Turbofan Engines

What this AD requires

We are adopting a new airworthiness directive (AD) for the products listed above. This AD results from mandatory continuing airworthiness information (MCAI) issued by an aviation authority of another country to identify and correct an unsafe condition on an aviation product. The MCAI describes the unsafe condition as:

Serial-conditional — narrows to serials CA0192–CA0300.

Applies only to PW305A/PW305B engines bearing one of the specific serial numbers listed in AD Table 1 (a discrete, non-contiguous list, not all serials within the span): CA0192, CA0195, CA0197, CA0199, CA0200, CA0202, CA0203, CA0204, CA0206, CA0207, CA0208, CA0209, CA0210, CA0211, CA0212, CA0213, CA0214, CA0215, CA0216, CA0217, CA0218, CA0220, CA0221, CA0223, CA0228, CA0231, CA0232, CA0234, CA0235, CA0240, CA0241, CA0243, CA0244, CA0246, CA0247, CA0257, CA0259, CA0260, CA0280, CA0300. Installed on, but not limited to, Bombardier Learjet 60 and Hawker Beechcraft 1000 series airplanes.

Whether AD E8-13854 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 complianceThe specific action taken (inspected, replaced, modified) and to what revision.
DateWhen the work was done.
Aircraft timeTotal time in service / tach at compliance — how recurring next-due is computed.
Signature & certificateThe A&P/IA who returned it to service, with certificate number.
Is AD E8-13854 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.
