AD: The Boeing Company Airplanes

AD NUMBER: 2013-24-01

PRODUCT: Boeing Model 747-8 and 747-8F series airplanes and Model 787-8 airplanes powered by GEnx engines.
SUBJECT: Airworthiness Directive 2013-24-01
ACTION: Final rule; request for comments.

SUMMARY:  This AD requires revising the airplane flight manual to advise the flight crew of potential ice crystal icing (ICI) conditions at high altitudes, and to prohibit operation in moderate and severe ICI conditions.

This AD also requires inspecting the engine after any ICI event is detected by the flight crew. This AD was prompted by reports of engine damage and thrust loss events as a result of flying in high altitude ICI conditions. The FAA is issuing this AD to ensure that the flight crews have operating instructions to avoid flight into ICI conditions that can lead to engine damage and thrust loss events; unrecoverable thrust loss on multiple engines can lead to a forced landing.

DATES: This AD is effective November 27, 2013. Comments must be received by January 13, 2014.
