Airworthiness Directives; General Electric Company CF6-80C2 Series Turbofan Engines; Correction

What this AD requires

The FAA is correcting airworthiness directive (AD) 2009-21-07, which published in the Federal Register. That AD applies to General Electric Company (GE) CF6-80C2 series turbofan engines with certain thrust reverser ballscrew gearbox assembly adjustable-length end actuators installed. The unsafe condition statement of "We are issuing this AD to prevent loss of asymmetric thrust and thrust control", and rod-end part number "MS2124S06" in paragraph (j) are incorrect. This document corrects the unsafe condition statement and the part number. In all other respects, the original document remains the same.

Whether AD E9-29483 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 compliance — The specific action taken (inspected, replaced, modified) and to what revision.
Date — When the work was done.
Aircraft time — Total time in service / tach at compliance — how recurring next-due is computed.
Signature & certificate — The A&P/IA who returned it to service, with certificate number.
Is AD E9-29483 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.
