The FAA is adopting a new airworthiness directive (AD) for all General Electric Company (GE) CF34-8 model turbofan engines with a certain outer shell combustion liner (combustion outer liner shell) installed. This AD was prompted by two in-flight engine shutdowns (IFSDs) that occurred as a result of failures of the combustion outer liner shell. This AD requires a borescope inspection (BSI) or visual inspection of the combustion outer liner shell and, depending on the results of the inspection, possible replacement of the combustion outer liner shell. The FAA is issuing this AD to address the unsafe condition on these products.

The FAA proposes to adopt a new airworthiness directive (AD) for all DG Flugzeugbau GmbH Models DG-500MB and DG-1000M gliders with a Solo Kleinmotoren GmbH Solo Model 2625 02i engine installed. This proposed AD was prompted by mandatory continuing airworthiness information (MCAI) issued by the aviation authority of another country to identify and correct an unsafe condition on an aviation product. The MCAI describes the unsafe condition as an error in the engine control unit (ECU) software. This proposed AD would require updating the ECU software. The FAA is proposing this AD to address the unsafe condition on these products.

The FAA is withdrawing the NPRM published in the Federal Register on July 12, 2017, proposing to amend VHF Omnidirectional Range (VOR) Federal airways V-16, V-31, V-93, V-157, V-213, and V-229 near Patuxent River, MD, due to the planned decommissioning of the Patuxent VOR/Tactical Air Navigation (VORTAC) (PXT), Patuxent River, MD, in support of the FAA's VOR Minimum Operational Network (MON) program. Subsequent to the NPRM, the PXT VORTAC decommissioning has been delayed until a to-be-determined date. The FAA decided that additional planning is necessary to ensure a more efficient implementation and integration with other ongoing VOR MON program activities, and determined that withdrawal of the proposed rule is warranted.

This final rule amends existing regulations to include the United States Space Force as a registration waiver and registration fee exempt military entity.

The FAA proposes to supersede Airworthiness Directive (AD) 2012-06-16, which applies to all Pilatus Aircraft Ltd. (Pilatus) Models PC-6, PC-6-H1, PC-6-H2, PC-6/350, PC-6/350-H1, PC-6/350-H2, PC-6/A, PC- 6/A-H1, PC-6/A-H2, PC-6/B-H2, PC-6/B1-H2, PC-6/B2-H2, PC-6/B2-H4, PC-6/ C-H2, and PC-6/C1-H2 airplanes. AD 2012-06-16 requires installing a new rudder and elevator locking screw and modifying the installation of the rudder and elevator hinge bolt. Since the FAA issued AD 2012-06-16, the European Union Aviation Safety Agency (EASA) superseded its mandatory continuing airworthiness information (MCAI) to correct an unsafe condition on these products. This proposed AD would not retain any actions required by AD 2012-06-16 and would require inspecting and modifying the rudder, elevator, and right-hand (RH) aileron hinge bolt installations. The FAA is proposing this AD to address the unsafe condition on these products.
