Abstract
The FAA proposes to supersede Airworthiness Directive (AD) 2021-11-15, which applies to certain International Aero Engines AG (IAE) V2500 model turbofan engines. AD 2021-11-15 requires performance of an ultrasonic inspection (USI) of the high-pressure turbine (HPT) 1st-stage disk and HPT 2nd-stage disk and, depending on the results of the inspections, replacement of the HPT 1st-stage disk or HPT 2nd-stage disk. Since the FAA issued AD 2021-11-15, the FAA determined the need to clarify the compliance time for inspection of any HPT 1st-stage disk or HPT 2nd-stage disk that is installed on a low-thrust model engine but had been previously operated on a high-thrust model engine. This proposed AD would require performance of a USI of the HPT 1st-stage disk and HPT 2nd-stage disk and, depending on the results of the inspections, replacement of the HPT 1st-stage disk or HPT 2nd-stage disk. The FAA is proposing this AD to address the unsafe condition on these products.

Airworthiness Directives; International Aero Engines AG Turbofan
Engines
AGENCY: Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), DOT.
ACTION: Notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM).
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: The FAA proposes to supersede Airworthiness Directive (AD)
2021-11-15, which applies to certain International Aero Engines AG
(IAE) V2500 model turbofan engines. AD 2021-11-15 requires performance
of an ultrasonic inspection (USI) of the high-pressure turbine (HPT)
1st-stage disk and HPT 2nd-stage disk and, depending on the results of
the inspections, replacement of the HPT 1st-stage disk or HPT 2nd-stage
disk. Since the FAA issued AD 2021-11-15, the FAA determined the need
to clarify the compliance time for inspection of any HPT 1st-stage disk
or HPT 2nd-stage disk that is installed on a low-thrust model engine
but had been previously operated on a high-thrust model engine. This
proposed AD would require performance of a USI of the HPT 1st-stage
disk and HPT 2nd-stage disk and, depending on the results of the
inspections, replacement of the HPT 1st-stage disk or HPT 2nd-stage
disk. The FAA is proposing this AD to address the unsafe condition on
these products.

Background
The FAA issued AD 2021-11-15, Amendment 39-21577 (86 FR 30380, June
8, 2021), (AD 2021-11-15), for all IAE V2522-A5, V2524-A5, V2525-D5,
V2527-A5, V2527E-A5, V2527M-A5, V2528-D5, V2530-A5, V2531-E5, and
V2533-A5 model turbofan engines with a certain HPT 1st-stage disk or
HPT 2nd-stage disk installed. AD 2021-11-15 was prompted by an event
involving an uncontained failure of an HPT 1st-stage disk that resulted
in high-energy debris penetrating the engine cowling. On March 18,
2020, an Airbus Model A321-231 airplane, powered by IAE V2533-A5 model
turbofan engines, experienced an uncontained HPT 1st-stage disk failure
that resulted in an aborted takeoff. The uncontained failure of the HPT
1st-stage disk resulted in high-energy debris penetrating the engine
cowling. The FAA published Emergency AD 2020-07-51 on March 21, 2020
(followed by publication in the Federal Register on April 13, 2020, as
a Final Rule, Request for Comments (85 FR 20402)) and AD 2021-01-03 on
January 6, 2021 (86 FR 458), to remove from service HPT 1st-stage and
HPT 2nd-stage disks identified as having the highest risk of failure.
Based on the root cause analysis performed since that event, the
manufacturer identified a population of HPT 1st-stage disks and HPT
2nd-stage disks that require inspection and possible removal from
service. AD 2021-11-15 requires the performance of an USI of the HPT
1st-stage disk and HPT 2nd-stage disk and, depending on the results of
the inspections, replacement of the HPT 1st-stage disk or HPT 2nd-stage
disk. The agency issued AD 2021-11-15 to prevent failure of the HPT
1st-stage disk and HPT 2nd-stage disk.
Actions Since AD 2021-11-15 Was Issued
Since the FAA issued AD 2021-11-15, the FAA determined the need to
clarify the compliance time for inspection of any HPT 1st-stage disk or
HPT 2nd-stage disk that is installed on a V2500 low-thrust model engine
but that had been previously operated on a V2500 high-thrust model
engine. The manufacturer categorizes V2527E-A5, V2527M-A5, V2528-D5,
V2530-A5, and V2533-A5 model turbofan engines as high-thrust model
engines and V2522-A5, V2524-A5, V2525-D5, and V2527-A model turbofan
engines as low-thrust model engines. The FAA determined that any HPT
1st-stage disk and HPT 2nd-stage disk that was operated on a high-
thrust model engine must follow shortened compliance thresholds.
FAA's Determination
The FAA is issuing this NPRM after determining that the unsafe
condition described previously is likely to exist or develop on other
products of the same type design.
Related Service Information Under 1 CFR part 51
The FAA reviewed IAE Non-Modification Service Bulletin (NMSB) No.
V2500-ENG-72-0713, Revision 1, dated January 26, 2021. This NMSB
identifies the affected HPT 1st-stage disks and HPT 2nd-stage disks on
IAE V2522-A5, V2524-A5, V2525-D5, V2527-A5, V2527E-A5, V2527M-A5,
V2528-D5, V2530-A5, and V2533-A5 model turbofan engines and specifies
procedures for a USI of the HPT 1st-stage disk and HPT 2nd-stage disk.
The Director of the Federal Register approved IAE NMSB V2500-ENG-72-
0713, Revision 1, dated January 26, 2021 for incorporation by reference
as of July 13, 2021 (86 FR 30380, June 8, 2021).
The FAA also reviewed IAE NMSB No. V2500-E5-72-0015, Revision 1,
dated August 10, 2021. This NMSB identifies the affected HPT 1st-stage
disks and HPT 2nd-stage disks on IAE V2531-E5 model turbofan engines
and specifies procedures for a USI of the HPT 1st-stage disk and HPT
2nd-stage disk.
This service information is reasonably available because the
interested parties have access to it through their normal course of
business or by the means identified in ADDRESSES.
Proposed AD Requirements in This NPRM
This proposed AD would retain certain requirements of AD 2021-11-
15. This proposed AD would require the performance of an USI of the HPT
1st-stage disk and HPT 2nd-stage disk and, depending on the results of
the inspections, replacement of the HPT 1st-stage disk or HPT 2nd-stage
disk.
Costs of Compliance
The FAA estimates that this AD, if adopted as proposed, would
affect 1,100 engines installed on airplanes of U.S. registry.
The FAA estimates the following costs to comply with this proposed
AD:
Estimated Costs
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Cost per Cost on U.S.
Action Labor cost Parts cost product operators
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
USI the HPT 1st-stage disk and HPT 2nd- 20 work-hours x $85 per $0 $1,700 $1,870,000
stage disk. hour = $1,700.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The FAA estimates the following costs to do any necessary
replacement that would be required based on the results of the proposed
inspection. The agency has no way of determining the number of aircraft
that might need this replacement:
[[Page 59660]]
On-Condition Costs

stage disk.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The FAA has included all known costs in its cost estimate.
According to the manufacturer, however, some of the costs of this
proposed AD may be covered under warranty, thereby reducing the cost
impact on affected individuals.
Authority for This Rulemaking
Title 49 of the United States Code specifies the FAA's authority to
issue rules on aviation safety. Subtitle I, Section 106, describes the
authority of the FAA Administrator. Subtitle VII, Aviation Programs,
describes in more detail the scope of the Agency's authority.
The FAA is issuing this rulemaking under the authority described in
Subtitle VII, Part A, Subpart III, Section 44701, General requirements.
Under that section, Congress charges the FAA with promoting safe flight
of civil aircraft in air commerce by prescribing regulations for
practices, methods, and procedures the Administrator finds necessary
for safety in air commerce. This regulation is within the scope of that
authority because it addresses an unsafe condition that is likely to
exist or develop on products identified in this rulemaking action.
Regulatory Findings
The FAA determined that this proposed AD would not have federalism
implications under Executive Order 13132. This proposed AD would not
have a substantial direct effect on the States, on the relationship
between the national Government and the States, or on the distribution
of power and responsibilities among the various levels of government.
For the reasons discussed above, I certify that the proposed
regulation:
(1) Is not a ``significant regulatory action'' under Executive
Order 12866,
(2) Would not affect intrastate aviation in Alaska, and
(3) Would not have a significant economic impact, positive or
negative, on a substantial number of small entities under the criteria
of the Regulatory Flexibility Act.
