✈️FAA Airworthiness Directive for CFM International Engines Compliance
The FAA is superseding Airworthiness Directive (AD) 2023-09- 06, which applied to all CFM International, S.A. Model (CFM) LEAP-1A23, LEAP-1A24, LEAP-1A24E1, LEAP-1A26, LEAP-1A26CJ, LEAP-1A26E1, LEAP-1A29, LEAP-1A29CJ, LEAP-1A30, LEAP-1A32, LEAP-1A33, LEAP-1A33B2, and LEAP- 1A35A (LEAP-1A) engines. AD 2023-09-06 required replacement of certain high-pressure turbine (HPT) rotor stage 1 disks (HPT stage 1 disks), forward outer seals, and compressor rotor stages 6-10 spools. AD 2023- 09-06 also prohibited installation of an HPT stage 1 disk, forward outer seal, or compressor rotor stages 6-10 spool that has a part number and serial number identified in the service information onto any engine. Since the FAA issued AD 2023-09-06, the manufacturer identified additional affected parts that were manufactured from material suspected to have reduced material properties due to iron inclusion, which prompted this AD. This AD retains the requirements to replace certain HPT stage 1 disks, forward outer seals, and compressor rotor stages 6-10 spools and expands the applicability to include additional affected parts manufactured from the same material suspected to have reduced material properties due to iron inclusion. The FAA is issuing this AD to address the unsafe condition on these products.
Learn More✈️New Airworthiness Directive for Viking Air DHC-3 Inspections
The FAA proposes to supersede Airworthiness Directive (AD) 2022-23-08, which applies to all Viking Air Limited (Viking) Model DHC- 3 airplanes. AD 2022-23-08 requires a visual inspection of the stabilizer actuator to confirm that the stabilizer actuator lock ring is present, correctly seated in the groove in the upper housing, and engaged in the clamp nut, applicable corrective actions, application of a torque seal, and sending the inspection results to the FAA. This proposed AD would require repetitively inspecting the stabilizer actuator to confirm that the stabilizer actuator lock ring is present, correctly seated in the groove in the upper housing, and engaged in the clamp nut; taking applicable corrective actions; applying a witness mark (torque seal); and installing a secondary retention feature as terminating action for the repetitive inspections. This proposed AD would also prohibit the installation of any stabilizer actuator unless it is a serviceable part. The FAA is proposing this AD to address the unsafe condition on these products.

The FAA is adopting a new airworthiness directive (AD) for all Airbus Helicopters Model AS332L1 helicopters. This AD was prompted by a determination that new or more restrictive airworthiness limitations are necessary. This AD requires revising the airworthiness limitations section (ALS) of the existing maintenance manual (MM) or instructions for continued airworthiness (ICAs) and the existing approved maintenance or inspection program, as applicable. The FAA is issuing this AD to address the unsafe condition on these products.

This action modifies the Class E airspace extending upward from 700 feet above the surface of the earth to provide additional instrument flight procedure containment at Yellowstone Regional Airport, Cody, WY. Additionally, this action updates the administrative portion of the airport's Class E airspace legal description. These actions support the safety and management of instrument flight rules (IFR) operations at the airport.
Learn More✈️Proposed FAA Airworthiness Directives for Airbus SAS Airplanes
The FAA proposes to supersede Airworthiness Directive (AD) 2024-22-02, which applies to certain Airbus SAS Model A330-200, -200 Freighter, -300, -800, and -900 series airplanes. AD 2024-22-02 requires revising the existing maintenance or inspection program, as applicable, to incorporate new or more restrictive airworthiness limitations. Since the FAA issued AD 2024-22-02, the FAA has determined that new or more restrictive airworthiness limitations are necessary. This proposed AD would continue to require certain actions in AD 2024- 22-02 and would require revising the existing maintenance or inspection program, as applicable, to incorporate new or more restrictive airworthiness limitations. The FAA is proposing this AD to address the unsafe condition on these products.
Learn More🚛Renewal of Motor Carrier Identification Report Compliance Notice
In accordance with the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995, FMCSA announces its plan to submit the Information Collection Request (ICR) described below to the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) for its review and approval and invites public comment. FMCSA requests approval to renew an ICR titled, "Motor Carrier Identification Report," which is used to identify FMCSA regulated entities, help prioritize the agency's activities, aid in assessing the safety outcomes of those activities, and for statistical purposes. This ICR is necessary to ensure regulated entities are registered with the DOT.

Learn More✈️Proposed FAA Airworthiness Directive for Airbus Models
The FAA proposes to supersede Airworthiness Directive (AD) 2023-25-09, which applies to all Airbus SAS Model A318, A319, A320, A321, A330-200, A330-200 Freighter, A330-300, A330-800, A330-900, A340- 200, A340-300, A340-500, and A340-600 series airplanes. AD 2023-25-09 requires replacing SafeLav gaseous oxygen containers (SLGOCs) affected by a production deficiency and prohibiting the installation of affected SLGOCs. Since the FAA issued AD 2023-25-09, a new airplane model has been certified, on which affected parts could be installed in service. This proposed AD would continue to require the actions in AD 2023-25-09 and would add airplanes to the applicability. The FAA is proposing this AD to address the unsafe condition on these products.

Learn More✈️FAA Proposes New Airworthiness Directive for Boeing Aircraft
The FAA proposes to supersede Airworthiness Directive (AD) 2013-08-11, which applies to certain The Boeing Company Model 737-900 and -900ER series airplanes. AD 2013-08-11 requires repetitive inspections for cracking of the fuselage skin along chem-mill steps at certain crown skin and shear wrinkle areas and repair if necessary. Since the FAA issued AD 2013-08-11, the FAA has determined that the compliance times are not adequate. This proposed AD would continue to require the actions in AD 2013-08-11 but at reduced compliance times and would require post-modification inspections if an optional modification is accomplished. The FAA is proposing this AD to address the unsafe condition on these products.
