Abstract
This amendment adopts a new airworthiness directive (AD), that is applicable to General Electric (GE) CF34-8C1 turbofan engines. This amendment requires replacing combustion chamber assemblies, part number (P/N) 4126T87G04, before accumulating a new reduced cyclic life limit. This amendment is prompted by stress and life analysis conducted by GE. The actions specified by this AD are intended to prevent rupture of the combustion chamber assembly and possible engine fire.
