Emergency ADRule

AD FAA-2015-0677

Airworthiness Directives; Gulfstream Aerospace Corporation Airplanes

Summary

We are adopting a new airworthiness directive (AD) for all Gulfstream Aerospace Corporation Model GVI airplanes. This AD was prompted by reports of corrosion on in-service air non-return valves. This AD requires a revision to the Emergency Procedures section of the airplane flight manual (AFM). This AD also requires a revision to the maintenance or inspection program, as applicable, to incorporate airworthiness limitations for the high pressure (HP) Stage 5 air non- return valves. We are issuing this AD to ensure the flightcrew is provided with procedures to mitigate the risks associated with failure of the HP Stage 5 air non-return valve. Failure of the HP Stage 5 air non-return valve in the open position could result in engine instability and uncommanded in-flight shutdown.
