Applicability*9
This AD applies to Honeywell International Inc. ATF3-6-4C, ATF3-6A-3C, and ATF3-6A-4C turbofan engines equipped with part number (P/N) 3002070-1 low pressure compressor (LPC) Aft shaft. These engines are installed on, but not limited to, Dassault Aviation Fan Jet Falcon Series G (Falcon 20G/HU25), and Dassault Aviation Mystere-Falcon 200 airplanes.
Compliance
You are responsible for having the actions required by this AD performed within the compliance times specified in Table 1 and Table 2 of this AD, unless the actions have already been done. Table 1.—ATF3-6A-4C Turbofan Engines, LPC Aft Shaft Replacement Compliance Schedule For ATF3-6A-4C turbofan engines, if the cycles-since-new (CSN) on the effective date of this AD are: Then replace the LPC Aft shaft: (1) 6,500 or more CSN Within an additional 100 cycles-in-service (CIS). (2) 5,000 to 6,499 CSN Within an additional 800 CIS, but not more than 6,600 CSN, whichever occurs first. (3) 4,000 to 4,999 CSN Within an additional 1,500 CIS, but not more than 5,800 CSN, whichever occurs first. (4) Fewer than 4,000 CSN Within an additional 2,000 CIS, but not more than 5,500 CSN, whichever occurs first. Table 2.—ATF3-6-4C and ATF3-6A-3C Turbofan Engines, LPC Aft Shaft Replacement Compliance Schedule For ATF3-6-4C and ATF3-6A-3C turbofan engines, if the CSN on the effective date of this AD are: Then replace the LPC Aft shaft: (1) 4,400 or more CSN Within an additional 100 CIS. (2) 3,600 to 4,399 CSN Within an additional 500 CIS, but not more than 4,500 CSN, whichever occurs first. (3) 3,300 to 3,599 CSN Within an additional 700 CIS, but not more than 4,100 CSN, whichever occurs first. (4) Fewer than 3,300 CSN Within an additional 1,000 CIS, but not more than 4,000 CSN, whichever occurs first. LPC Aft Shaft Replacement (f) Using the compliance schedule in Table 1 or Table 2 of this AD as applicable, remove the LPC aft shaft, P/N 3002070-1, from service, and install a serviceable LPC aft shaft. Definition (g) For the purpose of this AD, a serviceable LPC aft shaft is an aft shaft with a P/N not referenced in this AD. Alternative Methods of
Unsafe condition
This AD results from reports of eight LPC aft shafts found cracked during fluorescent penetrant inspection (FPI). We are issuing this AD to prevent uncoupling and overspeed of the low pressure turbine, which could result in uncontained engine failure and damage to the airplane.

TrackAD holds all 12,278 of them and matches them against the aircraft you actually look after — airframe, engine, propeller and appliances in one pass — then works out what falls due and when.
- Bring your existing list in from a spreadsheet Paste the rows straight out of Excel. Headers like C/W Date and N/A are read for you.
- A copy that works when this does not One file. No internet, no login, no this software running. For the morning something has to be produced and the computer is not cooperating.
