Applicability*9

This AD applies to Pratt & Whitney Canada Corp. JT15D-1, JT15D-1A, and JT15D-1B model turbofan engines as identified in Transport Canada AD CF-2022-27, dated May 19, 2022 (Transport Canada AD CF-2022-27).

Compliance

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

Required actions

Except as specified in paragraph (h) of this AD: Perform all required actions within the compliance times specified in, and in accordance with, Transport Canada AD CF-2022-27.

Unsafe condition

This AD was prompted by three prior reports of uncontained failure of the impeller, and one additional recent report of an in-service uncontained failure event. The FAA is issuing this AD to prevent uncontained failure of the impeller. The unsafe condition, if not addressed, could result in fracture of the impeller, subsequent uncontained failure of the engine, and damage to the airplane.

Affected ADs

This AD replaces AD 2004-04-09, Amendment 39-13490 (69 FR 9520, March 1, 2004).
