    Posted on Aviation Herald earlier

    The European Aviation Safety Agency issued Emergency Airworthiness Directive (EAD) 2018-0041-E concerning all PW1127, PW1130 and PW1133 engines with high pressure compressor aft hub modification embodied from ESN P770450. The EAD effectively withdraws ETOPS certification for all affected engines with immediate effect and prohibits operation of A320 Neo and A321 Neo aircraft with two affected engines installed.

    This would appear to be a fundamentally serious issue that will require some serious work by PW to resolve it.

    Shore, if it was easy, everybody would be doin it.😁
