## Abstract

This amendment adopts a new airworthiness directive (AD) that is applicable to Honeywell International, Inc., (formerly AlliedSignal, Inc. and Textron Lycoming) LF507 and ALF502R series turbofan engines with combustion chamber liner assembly part number (P/N) 2-131-520-03 installed. This action requires initial and repetitive borescope inspections of the combustion chamber liner assembly to determine if the combustion liner assembly condition is acceptable for continued operation, requires the removal from service of certain serial number (SN) combustion chamber liner assemblies, and provides an optional terminating action to the repetitive borescope inspections. This amendment is prompted by three reports of separation of the combustor dome baffle from the combustion chamber liner assembly resulting in engine combustion chamber liner assembly burn through. The actions specified in this AD are intended to prevent separation of the combustor dome baffle from the combustion chamber liner assembly and the flow of hot combustor gases on oil and fuel lines which could result in engine fire, in-flight shutdown, and damage to the airplane.
