What to do

Operators and maintenance organizations should contact their responsible military airworthiness authority to obtain the applicable AD for TP400-D6 engines. They should follow the military AD requirements for inspection and maintenance of the hot strut module. No civil compliance action is required until such ADs are issued by military authorities.

Summary

The document titled Engine — Hot Strut Module — Inspection is an informational Airworthiness Directive record created by EASA regarding the Europrop International GmbH TP400-D6 engine. It clarifies that no Europrop TP400-D6 engines are currently in civil service, so no public AD exists. The document serves as a recommendation for military authorities responsible for aircraft equipped with TP400-D6 engines to issue their own applicable ADs.

What changed

This document introduces an informational AD record without legally binding requirements for civil operators, as no TP400-D6 engines are in civil use. It directs military airworthiness authorities to issue their own ADs for affected military aircraft. The document does not amend or replace any existing ADs but provides guidance for military compliance.

Why it matters

This matters because it informs aviation professionals that no civil AD applies to the TP400-D6 engine at this time, preventing confusion about compliance obligations. Military operators and maintenance organizations must be aware that applicable ADs come from their national military authorities. This ensures proper oversight and safety management for aircraft with TP400-D6 engines in military service.
