AD: General Electric

AD NUMBER: 2007-24-07
MANUFACTURER: General Electric
SUBJECT: Airworthiness Directive 2007-24-07
SUMMARY:
The FAA is adopting a new airworthiness directive (AD) for a GE CF6-80C2B1 turbofan engine, serial number (SN) 690203, with fan disk, part number (P/N) 1703M78P11, SN RPMDA662, installed.

This AD requires stripping of thermal spray coating, inspection of dovetail slots, and reapplication of thermal spray coating on certain stage 1 fan disks.

This AD results from a report that a repair shop did not meet the process requirements when applying copper-nickel-indium (Cu-Ni-In) thermal coating to certain stage 1 fan disks.

We are issuing this AD to prevent possible uncontained release of multiple fan blades, resulting in damage to the airplane.
