Applicability*9

This AD applies to all General Electric Company (GE) GEnx-1B and GEnx-2B model turbofan engines.

Compliance

Comply with this AD within the compliance times specified, unless already done.

Required actions

(1) Within 120 days after the effective date of this AD, install electronic engine control (EEC) software that is eligible for installation. (2) At the next engine shop visit after June 9, 2017 (the effective date of AD 2017-09-06), or before further flight, whichever occurs later, remove from service all GE GEnx-2B67, -2B67B, and -2B67/P fan hub stator assembly booster outlet guide vanes (BOGV), part number (P/N) B1316-00720, and replace with a part eligible for installation.

Unsafe condition

This AD was prompted by reports of GEnx-1B and GEnx-2B model turbofan engines experiencing power loss in ice crystal icing conditions. The FAA is issuing this AD to prevent engine failure. The unsafe condition, if not addressed, could result in loss of thrust control and damage to the airplane.

Affected ADs

This AD replaces AD 2017-09-06, Amendment 39-18868 (82 FR 21111, May 5, 2017).
