AD: General Electric Company Turbofan Engines

AD NUMBER: 2013-16-15

PRODUCT: All General Electric Company (GE) model GEnx-2B67B turbofan engines with booster anti-ice (BAI) air duct, part number (P/N) 2469M32G01, and support bracket, P/N 2469M46G01, installed.
SUBJECT: Airworthiness Directive 2013-16-15
ACTION: Final Rule

SUMMARY:  This AD was prompted by reports of cracks in the BAI air duct. This AD requires initial and repetitive visual inspections of the BAI air duct, removal from service of the BAI air duct if it fails inspection and, as a mandatory terminating action, the installation of new BAI air duct support brackets. We are issuing this AD to prevent failure of the BAI air duct, resulting in an in-flight shutdown of one or more engines, loss of thrust control, and damage to the airplane.

DATES: This AD is effective September 23, 2013.
