Compliance

You are responsible for having the actions required by this AD performed within 10 hours time-in-service after the effective date of this AD, unless the actions have already been done. Turbocharger Removal From Service (f) Remove from service the rebuilt turbochargers listed by P/N in paragraph (c) of this AD that have a S/N listed in Table III of Kelly Aerospace Energy Systems, LLC SB No. 039 A, dated February 10, 2010. Installation Eligibility of Removed Turbochargers (g) Removed turbochargers listed in Table III of Kelly Aerospace Energy Systems, LLC SB No. 039 A, dated February 10, 2010, are eligible for installation once they are overhauled by an FAA-approved repair station. That overhaul must include replacing the turbine wheels listed by P/N in Table II of Kelly Aerospace Energy Systems, LLC SB No. 039 A, dated February 10, 2010, replacing the turbine wheel mating bushings, and marking the attached Return To Service Tag with this AD number, which is AD 2010-07-08. Installation Prohibition (h) After the effective date of this AD, do not install any of the turbochargers listed in Table III of Kelly Aerospace Energy Systems, LLC SB No. 039 A, dated February 10, 2010, unless the turbocharger is overhauled as specified in paragraph (g) of this AD. Alternative Methods of

Unsafe condition

This AD results from three reports of infant mortality turbine wheel failure in rebuilt turbochargers, since June of 2007. We are issuing this AD to prevent separation or seizure of the turbocharger turbine, which could result in full or partial engine power loss, loss of engine oil, and smoke in the airplane cabin.
