AD: International Aero Engines

AD NUMBER: 2009-22-06

MANUFACTURER:  International Aero Engines AG (IAE) V2500-A1, V2527E-A5, V2530-A5, and V2528-D5 Turbofan Engines
SUBJECT: Airworthiness Directive 2009-22-06

 

SUMMARY:This AD requires reducing the published life limit of certain high-pressure compressor (HPC) stage 9-12 disc assemblies. This AD also removes from service those HPC stage 9-12 disc assemblies using a drawdown schedule. This AD results from IAE updating the low-cycle-fatigue (LCF) life analysis for certain HPC stage 9-12 disc assemblies. We are issuing this AD to prevent an uncontained failure of the HPC stage 9-12 disc assembly, resulting in an in-flight engine shutdown and possible damage to the airplane.
