AD: General Electric

AD NUMBER: 2007-05-14
MANUFACTURER: General Electric
SUBJECT: Airworthiness Directive 2007-05-14
SUMMARY:
The FAA is adopting a new airworthiness directive (AD) for GE CF6-80C2 series turbofan engines.

This AD requires replacing certain installed part number (P/N) and serial number (SN) cast titanium weld-repaired forward engine mount platforms and cast titanium forward mount yokes, with a forged titanium or a non-welded cast titanium part.

This AD results from the discovery of cracks, in a weld-repaired area on a forward engine mount platform and a forward engine mount yoke, found during a fluorescent penetrant inspection (FPI). These parts were weld-repaired during manufacture.

We are issuing this AD to prevent cracks in the forward engine mount platform and forward engine mount yoke that could result in possible separation of the engine from the airplane.
