New TPE331 AD that affects Woodward FCU units.
« on: October 30, 2016, 01:25:43 pm »
Got it through the mail yesterday. AD 2016-21-7 replaces 2015-12-04 and asks to inspect the FCU drive from the engine. I'm assuming it's a splined axle. Was wondering how easy this one is to comply with - anyone done it?

I think we had to do the predecessor to that AD (maybe it was a mandatory service bulletin at the time)?

As I recall, it involved overhauling the FCU. One of mine needed it and one didn't... but that's just off the top of my head. I could be wrong.
