AD: McCauley

AD NUMBER: 2005-24-09
MANUFACTURER: McCauley
SUBJECT: Airworthiness Directive 2005-24-09
SUMMARY:
The FAA is adopting a new airworthiness directive (AD) for McCauley Propeller Systems propeller assemblies, models 2D34C53/74E-X; D2A34C58/90AT-X; 3AF32C87/82NC-X;D3AF32C87/82NC-X; D3A32C88/82NC-X; D3A32C90/82NC-X; and 3AF34C92/90LF-X. This AD requires, within 10 flight hours or 10 days after the effective date of this AD, whichever occurs first, removing certain serial number propeller hubs from service.

This AD results from a report by the manufacturer that they manufactured and released 40 propeller hubs with improperly machined socket retention threads.

We are issuing this AD to prevent cracked propeller hubs, which could cause failure of the propeller hub, blade separation, and loss of control of the airplane.
