EASA AD 2025-0132-CN
CANCELLED: Engine — Turbine Exhaust Case Module — Inspection / Replacement
Summary
EASA Airworthiness Directive record titled 'CANCELLED: Engine — Turbine Exhaust Case Module — Inspection / Replacement' addresses the Europrop International GmbH TP400-D6 engine. This document clarifies that no Airworthiness Directive (AD) exists for this engine in civil service as there are currently no TP400-D6 engines in civil use. The record serves as an informational notice primarily for military authorities responsible for aircraft equipped with this engine.
What Changed
This document cancels the issuance of a public AD for the TP400-D6 engine turbine exhaust case module inspection or replacement. Instead, it directs affected military authorities to issue their own legally binding ADs as applicable. The EASA record is provided only for informational purposes and does not impose any new regulatory requirements.
Why It Matters
This matters because operators and maintenance organizations dealing with military aircraft powered by the TP400-D6 engine must rely on their respective military airworthiness authorities for compliance requirements. It prevents confusion by clarifying that no civil AD applies and ensures that military operators follow the appropriate national regulations. Compliance teams must be aware that the EASA record is not a substitute for official military ADs.
What To Do
Affected stakeholders, particularly military operators and maintenance organizations, should contact their responsible military airworthiness authority to obtain the applicable AD for the TP400-D6 engine. No civil compliance action is required based on this EASA record. Operators should monitor communications from their national military authorities for any mandatory directives.
