Airworthiness Directives; Pratt & 

Whitney Division Engines 

AGENCY: Federal Aviation 

Administration (FAA), DOT. 

ACTION: Final rule. 

SUMMARY: The FAA is superseding 

Airworthiness Directive (AD) 2018–21– 

11, which applied to all Pratt & Whitney 

Division (PW) Model PW4074D, 

PW4077D, PW4084D, PW4090, and 

PW4090–3 engines with a low-pressure 

compressor (LPC) fan hub, part number 

(P/N) 51B821 or P/N 52B521, installed. 

AD 2018–21–11 required performing 

repetitive eddy current inspections 

(ECIs) and fluorescent penetrant 

inspections (FPIs) for cracks in certain 

LPC fan hubs and removing LPC fan 

hubs from service that fail any 

inspection. Since the FAA issued AD 

2018–21–11, the FAA determined that 

affected LPC fan hub assemblies can 

meet the published certificated life limit 

without the need for the required 

repetitive FPI inspections in AD 2018– 

21–11, and the repetitive ECI 


ddrumheller on DSK120RN23PROD with RULES1
67940 Federal Register / Vol. 88, No. 190 / Tuesday, October 3, 2023 / Rules and Regulations 

inspections require shortened intervals. 

Based on a report of another incident, 

the FAA determined that the unsafe 

condition is likely to exist or develop on 

additional LPC fan hub assemblies and 

PW model engines. This AD expands 

the applicability to include Model 

PW4074, PW4074D, PW4077, 

PW4077D, PW4084D, PW4090, and 

PW4090–3 engines with any part 

number LPC fan hub assembly installed 

and requires performing repetitive ECIs 

of the LPC fan hub assembly and, 

depending on the results of the 

inspections, removing the LPC fan hub 

assembly from service. The FAA is 

issuing this AD to address the unsafe 

condition on these products. 

DATES: This AD is effective November 7, 

2023. 

The Director of the Federal Register 

approved the incorporation by reference 

of a certain publication listed in this AD 

as of November 7, 2023.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Background 

The FAA issued a notice of proposed 

rulemaking (NPRM) to amend 14 CFR 

part 39 to supersede AD 2018–21–11, 

Amendment 39–19469 (83 FR 54663, 

October 31, 2018) (‘‘AD 2018–21–11’’). 

AD 2018–21–11 applied to all PW 

Model PW4074, PW4074D, PW4077, 

PW4077D, PW4084D, PW4090, and 

PW4090–3 engines. The NPRM 

published in the Federal Register on 

May 23, 2023 (88 FR 32978), which 

proposed to supersede AD 2018–21–11. 

The NPRM was prompted by an 

updated analysis by the engine 

manufacturer, which indicated certain 

LPC fan hubs could crack before their 

published life limit. However, the FAA 

determined that affected LPC fan hub 

assemblies can meet the published 

certificated life limit without the need 

for the required repetitive FPI 

inspections in AD 2018–21–11, and the 

repetitive ECI inspections require 

shortened intervals. Additionally, the 

FAA also received a report of an 

uncontained failure of the fan hub 

assembly on an Engine Alliance GP7270 

engine on an Air France flight. 

Investigation of this uncontained failure 

revealed that, due to the similarity of 

design and material processing for the 

LPC fan hub assembly, the ECI 

inspections should be done on all LPC 

fan hub assembly part numbers installed 

on PW Model PW4074, PW4074D, 

PW4077, PW4077D, PW4084D, 

PW4090, and PW4090–3 engines. In the 

NPRM, the FAA proposed to expand the 

applicability to include Model PW4074, 

PW4074D, PW4077, PW4077D, 

PW4084D, PW4090, and PW4090–3 

engines with any P/N LPC fan hub 

assembly installed. In the NPRM, the 

FAA also proposed to require 

performing repetitive ECIs of the LPC 

fan hub assembly and, depending on the 

results of the inspections, removing the 

LPC fan hub assembly from service. The 

FAA is issuing this AD to prevent 

failure of the LPC fan hub assembly. 

This condition, if not addressed, could 

result in uncontained debris release, 

damage to the engine, and damage to the 

aircraft. 

Actions Since the NPRM Was Issued 

Since the FAA published the NPRM, 

PW revised Alert Service Bulletin (ASB) 

PW4G–112–A72–362, Revision No. 1, 

dated January 20, 2022, to ASB PW4G– 

112–A72–362, Revision No. 2, dated 

August 2, 2023. This service bulletin 

revision does not include the 

specification to remove LPC fan hub 

assemblies with reportable indications 

from service. PW also added 

instructions pertaining to reporting 

inspection results. 

As a result, the FAA changed 

paragraph (g)(2) from ‘‘If a reportable or 

rejectable indication is found’’ to ‘‘If a 

rejectable indication is found,’’ added 

paragraph (j), Credit for Previous 

Actions, to give full credit for anyone 

already accomplishing this action before 

the effective date using Revision No. 1, 

and re-designated subsequent 

paragraphs accordingly. This AD does 

not require reporting inspection results. 

Discussion of Final Airworthiness 

Directive 

Comments 

The FAA received comments from 

two commenters. Commenters included 

The Boeing Company and The Air Line 

Pilots Association, International. Both 

commenters support the NPRM without 

change. 

Conclusion 

The FAA reviewed the relevant data, 

considered the comments received, and 

determined that air safety requires 

adopting the AD as proposed. 

Accordingly, the FAA is issuing this AD 

to address the unsafe condition on these 

products. Except for minor editorial 

changes, which include updating the 

service information and removing the 

requirement for removing LPC fan hub 

assemblies with reportable indications 

from service, this AD is adopted as 

proposed in the NPRM. 

Related Service Information Under 1 

CFR Part 51 

The FAA reviewed Pratt & Whitney 

ASB PW4G–112–A72–362, Revision No. 

2, dated August 2, 2023. This service 

information specifies procedures for 

ECIs of the LPC fan hub assembly for 

cracks. This service information also 

specifies reporting inspection results to 

PW. 

This service information is reasonably 

available because the interested parties 

have access to it through their normal 

course of business or by the means 

identified in ADDRESSES. 

Costs of Compliance 

The FAA estimates that this AD 

affects 65 engines installed on airplanes 

of U.S. registry. 

The FAA estimates the following 

costs to comply with this AD:

The FAA estimates the following 

costs to do any necessary replacements 

that would be required based on the 

results of the inspection. The agency has 

no way of determining the number of 

engines that might need this 

replacement: 

ON-CONDITION COSTS

Action Labor cost Parts cost Cost per product 

Replace LPC fan hub assembly .......... 65 work-hours × $85 per hour = $5,525 ....................................... $1,194,000 $1,199,525 

Authority for This Rulemaking 

Title 49 of the United States Code 

specifies the FAA’s authority to issue 

rules on aviation safety. Subtitle I, 

Section 106, describes the authority of 

the FAA Administrator. Subtitle VII, 

Aviation Programs, describes in more 

detail the scope of the Agency’s 

authority. 

The FAA is issuing this rulemaking 

under the authority described in 

Subtitle VII, Part A, Subpart III, Section 

44701, General requirements. Under 

that section, Congress charges the FAA 

with promoting safe flight of civil 

aircraft in air commerce by prescribing 

regulations for practices, methods, and 

procedures the Administrator finds 

necessary for safety in air commerce. 

This regulation is within the scope of 

that authority because it addresses an 

unsafe condition that is likely to exist or 

develop on products identified in this 

rulemaking action. 

Regulatory Findings 

The FAA has determined that this AD 

will not have federalism implications 

under Executive Order 13132. This AD 

will not have a substantial direct effect 

on the States, on the relationship 

between the national government and 

the States, or on the distribution of 

power and responsibilities among the 

various levels of government. 

For the reasons discussed above, I 

certify that this AD: 

(1) Is not a ‘‘significant regulatory 

action’’ under Executive Order 12866, 

(2) Will not affect intrastate aviation 

in Alaska, and 

(3) Will not have a significant 

economic impact, positive or negative, 

on a substantial number of small entities 

under the criteria of the Regulatory 

Flexibility Act.

regulatory actions are needed because of 

the adoption of new or revised criteria, 

or because of changes occurring in the 

National Airspace System, such as the 

commissioning of new navigational 

facilities, adding new obstacles, or 

changing air traffic requirements. These 

changes are designed to provide for the 

safe and efficient use of the navigable 

airspace and to promote safe flight 

operations under instrument flight rules 

at the affected airports. 

DATES: This rule is effective October 3, 

2023. The compliance date for each 

SIAP, associated Takeoff Minimums, 

and ODP is specified in the amendatory

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This rule 

amends 14 CFR part 97 by amending the 

referenced SIAPs. The complete 

regulatory description of each SIAP is 

listed on the appropriate FAA Form 

8260, as modified by the National Flight 

Data Center (NFDC)/Permanent Notice 

to Airmen (P–NOTAM), and is 

incorporated by reference under 5 

U.S.C. 552(a), 1 CFR part 51, and 14 

CFR 97.20. The large number of SIAPs, 

their complex nature, and the need for 

a special format make their verbatim 

publication in the Federal Register 

expensive and impractical. Further, 

airmen do not use the regulatory text of 

the SIAPs, but refer to their graphic 

depiction on charts printed by 

publishers of aeronautical materials. 

Thus, the advantages of incorporation 

by reference are realized and 

publication of the complete description 

of each SIAP contained on FAA form 

documents is unnecessary. This 

amendment provides the affected CFR 

sections, and specifies the SIAPs and 

Takeoff Minimums and ODPs with their 

applicable effective dates. This 

amendment also identifies the airport 

and its location, the procedure and the 

amendment number.
