Unsafe Condition

Cracking in HPC front hubs and HPC disks coated with PWA 110-21 coating, which could result in a rupture of the HPC front hub or HPC disk, leading to an uncontained engine failure and damage to the airplane.

AI-generated summary from the source AD text. Verify against the official source before acting.

Required Actions

Replace HPC front hubs and HPC disks that have operated with PWA 110-21 coating and operated in certain engine models, or visually inspect and perform FMPI for cracking of those parts and re-plate them if they pass inspection. Add JT8D-1, -1A, -1B, -7, -7A, -7B, -9, -9A, -11, -15, -15A, -17, -17A, -17R, and -17AR engines to the applicability.
