EASA issues follow-up Airworthiness Directive for Trent XWB engines
The European Union Aviation Safety Agency (EASA) has issued Airworthiness Directive (AD) 2024-0182 for Rolls-Royce Trent XWB engines fitted on Airbus A350 aircraft.
The new AD supersedes EASA AD 2024-0174-E, which was issued in response to the serious incident with Cathay Pacific flight CX383 departing Hong Kong on September 2. The A350-1000 aircraft experienced an in-flight engine fire shortly after take-off. The fire was promptly detected and extinguished, and the aircraft returned safely to Hong Kong.
