What to do
Stakeholders should contact the responsible military authority in the country where the affected aircraft with TP400-D6 engines are registered to obtain the applicable military airworthiness directive. Operators and maintenance organizations should follow the military AD requirements for compliance. There are no civil compliance deadlines specified in this document.
Summary
EASA Airworthiness Directive 2022-0108 is an informational document concerning Europrop International GmbH TP400-D6 engines, which are currently not in civil service. This directive is intended for military airworthiness authorities and design approval holders, providing recommendations rather than legally binding requirements. The applicable airworthiness directives for aircraft equipped with TP400-D6 engines are issued by the respective military authorities based on the country of registration.
What changed
EASA Airworthiness Directive 2022-0108 replaces the absence of a publicly available AD document for TP400-D6 engines by creating an advisory record for informational purposes only. It introduces a framework where military authorities are recommended to issue their own legally valid airworthiness directives for affected aircraft. This document clarifies that no civil AD exists due to the lack of TP400-D6 engines in civil service.
Why it matters
This directive informs aviation professionals that no civil airworthiness directive applies to TP400-D6 engines, emphasizing the role of military authorities in managing airworthiness for these engines. Operators, maintenance organizations, and compliance teams should recognize that compliance requirements are governed by military regulations rather than EASA civil ADs. Understanding this distinction helps ensure proper adherence to applicable airworthiness standards and facilitates communication with the correct authorities.
