AD 2009-07-10 Airworthiness Directives; General Electric Company CF6-80A Series Turbofan Engines
Applicability*9
This AD applies to General Electric Co. (GE) CF6-80A, CF6-80A1, CF6-80A2, and CF6-80A3 turbofan engines with a high-pressure turbine rotor (HPTR) stage 1 disk, part number (P/N) 9367M45G06, installed. These engines are installed on, but not limited to, Airbus A310 series and Boeing 767 series airplanes.
Compliance
You are responsible for having the actions required by this AD performed within the compliance times specified unless the actions have already been done. New Reduced Life Limit for HPTR Stage 1 Disks, P/N 9367M45G06 (f) After the effective date of this AD, remove HPTR stage 1 disks, P/N 9367M45G06, from service before exceeding the new, reduced life limit of 2,075 cycles-since-new. Alternative Methods of
Unsafe condition
This AD results from an error by GE that incorrectly cited a cyclic life of 12,600 CSN in the Airworthiness Limitations Section (ALS) of the Instructions for Continued Airworthiness (ICA) for the HPTR stage 1 disk, P/N 9367M45G06. We are issuing this AD to prevent the HPTR stage 1 disk from exceeding its part life, which could cause fatigue cracks to start and grow. These cracks could result in a possible uncontained disk failure and damage to the airplane.

You just looked this one up by hand
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.
- $5 a month, or $50 a year Up to 50 aircraft on either.
