This amendment adopts a new airworthiness directive (AD) that is applicable to AlliedSignal, Inc. (formerly Textron Lycoming) LTS101 series turboshaft engines. This action requires a one-time replacement of magnetic speed pickups in the engine electronic overspeed protection system, or inspection, and replacement, if necessary, of pickups with incorrect polarity. This amendment is prompted by reports of a manufacturing error that resulted in improper sensor polarity of magnetic speed pickups. The actions specified in this AD are intended to prevent the engine electronic overspeed protection system from failing to function as designed, which can result in the inability to arrest an uncontrolled power turbine (PT) rotor overspeed and damage to the aircraft.
The aircraft, engines and makers this AD names, by the model designations in its text. A model listed here may still be outside the AD's serial ranges.
