Airworthiness Directives; General Electric Company CF6 Series Turbofan Engines

The General Electric Company (GE) is proposing a new airworthiness directive (AD) for its CF6-80A series turbofan engines, requiring on-wing inspections to detect cracks in the compressor rear frame (CRF) midflange and replacing damaged parts. The proposal aims to prevent a CRF separation that could lead to a rejected takeoff and aircraft damage.
