AD: General Electric

AD NUMBER: 2006-05-04
MANUFACTURER: General Electric
SUBJECT: Airworthiness Directive 2006-05-04
SUMMARY:
The FAA is superseding an existing airworthiness directive (AD) for General Electric Company (GE) CF34-1A, -3A, -3A1, -3A2, -3B, and -3B1 turbofan engines. That AD currently requires a onetime inspection, and if necessary replacing certain fan disks for electrical arc-out indications.That AD also reduces the life limit of certain fan disks. This AD requires the same actions and adds one disk part number (P/N) and serial number (SN) to the affected fan disks. This AD results from an error in the first part number and serial number listed in Table 1 of the original AD. We are issuing this AD to prevent rupture of the fan disk due to cracks that initiate at an electrical arc-out, which could result in an uncontained failure of the engine.
