The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) has issued a final rule concerning certain General Electric (GE) aircraft engines. It requires the replacement of specific cooling plates on these engines because they may not meet safety guidelines, potentially leading to an unsafe condition. This rule affects 228 engines in the U.S. registry and aims to prevent possible engine failures that could lead to damage. The rule will be effective from April 8, 2025, ensuring that planes equipped with these engines continue to operate safely.
Simple Explanation
The FAA wants to change some engine parts on certain airplanes to make sure they work safely. They found that some parts might not work as they should, so replacing them will help prevent any problems while flying.
