What the agency says

The FAA is adopting a new airworthiness directive (AD) for all BRP-Rotax GmbH & Co KG (Rotax) Model 915 iSc2 C24 and 915 iSc3 C24 engines. This AD was prompted by a report of a certain collar nut that was not installed on the propeller gearbox. This AD requires a visual inspection of the propeller gearbox to determine if a collar nut is installed on the propeller shaft and, if not installed, replacement of the propeller gearbox with a serviceable propeller gearbox. The FAA is issuing this AD to address the unsafe condition on these products.
