SUPERSEDED BY FAA AD 2025-02-07

FAA Airworthiness Directive 2020-03-20 is a final rule addressing certain Boeing aircraft models including MD-11, MD-11F, 717-200, all 737-8 and 737-9, all 737-600/-700/-700C/-800/-900/-900ER series, certain 747-400 and 747-400F, certain 757 and 767, and all 777 airplanes. This directive requires revising the airplane flight manual to prohibit operations requiring less than 0.3 required navigational performance (RNP) within a specified geographic area for airplanes equipped with a Collins GLU-2100 multi-mode receiver (MMR) with certain software versions. The AD was issued due to reports of loss or degradation of GPS data affecting positional accuracy.

Engine — High Pressure Turbine Case — Replacement

EASA Airworthiness Directive 2018-0239 is an official safety directive addressing the replacement of high pressure turbine (HPT) cases in CFM International LEAP-1B engines, which are installed on Boeing 737-8 and 737-9 aircraft. The directive targets specific HPT cases and combustor diffuser nozzle (CDN) cases identified by part and serial numbers due to concerns over unapproved weld repairs and potential life limit reductions. It mandates inspections and replacement of affected parts to prevent possible engine failure and uncontained debris release.
