The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) has issued a new Airworthiness Directive (AD) that affects certain Rolls-Royce Deutschland Ltd & Co KG Model Trent 1000 engines. This rule replaces a previous AD and requires updates to the airworthiness limitation section of an aircraft's maintenance program to prevent engine failures. The change, prompted by updates in the manufacturer's time limits manual, aims to address safety concerns by introducing stricter maintenance tasks and limits. This directive becomes effective on January 6, 2025, and is based on cooperation and standards with the European Union Aviation Safety Agency (EASA).

The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) is proposing a change to the airspace around Marysville, Ohio.

Specifically, it involves expanding the Class E airspace area from a 6.3-mile radius to a 6.7-mile radius and includes other updates related to airspace boundaries. Public comments on this proposed rule are invited until March 21, 2025.
