| 00-10291 | Airworthiness Directives; Allison Engine Company 250-C18 and -C20 Series Turboshaft Engines | Proposed Rule | This document proposes to adopt a new airworthiness directive (AD), applicable to Allison Engine Company 250-C18 and -C20 series turboshaft engines. This proposal would require a one-time visual inspection of the fuel nozzle screen for contamination. If contamination is found, this proposal would require, prior to further flight, replacement of the fuel nozzle screen with a serviceable screen, visual inspection of the entire fuel system for contamination, and repair, if necessary. In addition, this proposal would require reporting the results of the one-time inspection to the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) to determine if repetitive inspections should be required by future rulemaking. This proposal is prompted by a report of fuel system contamination that caused blockage of the fuel nozzle screen. This blockage of the fuel nozzle screen caused an in- flight engine shutdown, autorotation, and forced landing. The actions specified by the proposed AD are intended to prevent an in-flight engine shutdown due to blockage of the fuel nozzle screen, which can result in autorotation and forced landing. | 2000-04-25 | 2000 | 4 | https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2000/04/25/00-10291/airworthiness-directives-allison-engine-company-250-c18-and--c20-series-turboshaft-engines | https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-2000-04-25/pdf/00-10291.pdf | Transportation Department; Federal Aviation Administration | 492,159 | This document proposes to adopt a new airworthiness directive (AD), applicable to Allison Engine Company 250-C18 and -C20 series turboshaft engines.
