Plain English Summary

1/10 complexity

This document officially cancels a previous aircraft safety rule (Airworthiness Directive AD/PT6A/26) that required owners of Pratt & Whitney Canada PT6A series engines to perform specific maintenance on power turbine containment rings by December 1996.

What this means:

As of 2 July 2009, aircraft operators no longer need to follow the requirements in Service Bulletins No. 12076 or No. 1427 (these were technical instructions issued by the manufacturer).
The original safety requirement is completely removed.
Owners and operators of these engines are no longer legally required to perform the inspections or replacements mandated by the original directive.

In short, this is a clean-up measure that removes an outdated maintenance requirement, reducing red tape for aircraft operators.
