AD: General Electric

AD NUMBER: 2006-20-06
MANUFACTURER: General Electric
SUBJECT: Airworthiness Directive 2006-20-06
SUMMARY:
The FAA is adopting a new airworthiness directive (AD) for General Electric Company (GE) CF34-10E series turbofan engines.

This AD requires removing the main fuel pump (MFP) inlet strainer from certain MFPs, installing a certain replacement flange as an interim repair, and performing initial and repetitive visual inspections of the main fuel filter.

This AD results from three reports of release of the tripod support legs on the MFP inlet strainer, leading to engine in-flight shutdown.

We are issuing this AD to prevent engine in-flight shutdown due to MFP malfunctions.
