(3) For affected HPT stage 1 disks identified in table 1 to paragraph (c) of this AD that are not included in paragraph (g)(1) of this AD, at the next piece part exposure or before the affected HPT stage 1 disk exceeds 8,600 cycles since new (CSN), whichever occurs first after the effective date of this AD, remove the affected HPT stage 1 disk from service and replace with a part eligible for installation. (4) For affected HPT stage 2 disks identified in table 1 to paragraph (c) of this AD that are not included in paragraph (g)(2) of this AD, at the next piece part exposure or before the affected HPT stage 2 disk exceeds 12,000 CSN, whichever occurs first after the effective date of this AD, remove the affected HPT stage 2 disk from service and replace with a part eligible for installation.

Unsafe condition

This AD was prompted by a manufacturer investigation that revealed certain HPT stage 1 and HPT stage 2 disks were subject to iron inclusion introduced during the manufacturing process. The FAA is issuing this AD to prevent fracture and potential uncontained failure of certain HPT stage 1 and HPT stage 2 disks. The unsafe condition, if not addressed, could result in uncontained debris release, damage to the engine, and damage to the airplane.

Affected ADs

None.
