(P&WC) Models PW305A and PW305B turbofan engines with high pressure compressor (HPC) drum rotor assemblies, post P&WC Service Bulletin (SB) PW300–72– 24287 but without P&WC SB PW300–72– 24376, installed. These engines are installed on, but not limited to, Bombardier Learjet M60 and Hawker Beechcraft 1000 series airplanes. Reason (d) P&WC has determined that the PostService Bulletin (SB) PW300–72–24287 High Pressure Compressor (HPC) drum rotor assemblies P/N 30B2478 and 30B2542 on PW305A and 305B engines with single stage coated labyrinth seals, are susceptible to developing significant cracks in the region of the labyrinth seal. 14:25 Jul 08, 2009 DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION 14 CFR Part 91 (e) Unless already done, do the following actions. (1) Within 500 flight hours after effective date of this directive, borescope-inspect the interiors of affected HPC rotor assemblies for cracks. If a crack is found, remove the engine before next flight for HPC drum rotor replacement. Pratt & Whitney Maintenance Manual, Chapter 72–00–00, contains guidance on borescope inspection. Credit for Previous Inspections (2) Inspection of affected HPC drum rotor assembly per P&WC SB PW300–72–24462 and or SB PW305 MM 05–20–00 inspection requirements prior to the effective date of this directive satisfies the requirements of paragraph (e)(1) of this AD. (3) Repeat borescope inspection per paragraph (e)(1) of this AD, at intervals not exceeding 1,350 flight cycles. If a crack is found, remove the engine before next flight for HPC rotor drum replacement. Optional Terminating Action (4) Replacement of the affected HPC rotor assembly P/N 30B2478 or 30B2542 with PostSB PW300–72–24376 assembly P/N 31B6325–01 or later superseding P/N, will constitute terminating action for the inspection requirements of the above paragraphs (e)(1) and (e)(2) of the corrective action requirements of this AD. Other FAA AD Provisions [Amended] VerDate Nov<24>2008 We are issuing this AD to detect cracks in the HPC drum rotor assembly, which could lead to an uncontained failure of the drum rotor assembly and damage to the airplane. Actions and Compliance We prepared a regulatory evaluation of the estimated costs to comply with this AD and placed it in the AD docket. § 39.13 32803 Jkt 217001 (f) Alternative Methods of Compliance (AMOCs): The Manager, Engine Certification Office, FAA, has the authority to approve AMOCs for this AD, if requested using the procedures found in 14 CFR 39.19.
