Applicability*9

This AD applies to International Aero Engines, LLC Model PW1124G1-JM, PW1127G-JM, PW1127GA-JM, PW1129G-JM, PW1130G-JM, PW1133G-JM, and PW1133GA-JM engines with an installed high-pressure compressor (HPC) rear hub, part number 30G4008 or 30G8208, with a serial number (S/N) listed in Table 2 or Table 3 of Pratt & Whitney Service Bulletin PW1000G-C-72-00-0209-00A-930A-D, Issue No: 002, dated June 20, 2023 (PW1000G-C-72-00-0209-00A-930A-D, Issue No: 002).

Compliance

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

Required actions

At the next engine shop visit after the effective date of this AD, replace the HPC rear hub with a part eligible for installation.

Unsafe condition

This AD was prompted by a manufacturer investigation which revealed that Maintenance, Repair, and Overhaul shops were misinterpreting accepted knife edge coating wear limits. The FAA is issuing this AD to prevent heat-induced cracking at the forward and aft knife edge seals and uncontained separation of the HPC rear hub. The unsafe condition, if not addressed, could result in uncontained debris release, damage to the engine, damage to the airplane, in-flight shutdown, and loss of the airplane.

Affected ADs

None.
