SouthWest mid-air accident: NCAA mandates compliance with FAA directive by operators - Edoman - 04-28-2018

FOLLOWING a recent incident involving an American carrier, South West Airlines in which one of its engine exploded mid-air; operators in Nigeria have been mandated to comply United States Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) Emergency Airworthiness Directive forthwith.
A letter (AOL) 070 was issued by the Nigerian Civil Aviation Authority (NCAA) endorsed by Engr. Kayode Ajiboye on behalf of Capt Muhtar Usman, Director General NCAA dated 23 rd April, 2018 addressed to all airlines and aircraft owners for immediate compliance.
Upon the receipt of FAA Emergency Airworthiness Directive AD 2018-09-51, NCAA swung into action by carrying out a review on all the airlines to determine the operators of aircraft type with CFM56-7B engines that are essentially affected by the circular.
It was established that only two (2) operators have the aircraft type in question in their fleet but the good news is that they are yet to reach the 30,000 cycles to which the Emergency AD requires immediate ultrasonic inspection of the fan blades within 20 days.
However the Authority went ahead to notify all the Nigerian operators about this development to enable them carry out the required inspection when it is eventually due.
Nigeria air travellers are assured that the Authority will continue to enforce compliance with Safety Regulations at all times for a safer aviation and any violations will be treated in line with the provisions of the Nigerian Civil Aviation Regulations (NCARs). https://nigerianflightdeck.com/2018/04/southwest-mid-air-incident-ncaa-mandates-compliance-with-faa-directive-by-all-operators/
