BILLING CODE 4910-13-P ER19NO21.576 BILLING CODE 4910-13-C

Unsafe condition

This AD was prompted by reports of an oil pump blockage on the E4 model diesel piston engines. The FAA is issuing this AD to prevent failure of the engine lubrication system. The unsafe condition, if not addressed, could result in failure of the engine, in-flight shutdown, and loss of the airplane.

Affected ADs

This AD replaces AD 2021-09-04, Amendment 39-21517 (86 FR 21637, April 23, 2021).
