A proposal is not in force. If adopted, it becomes an AD, usually with changes. Only the Federal Register edition is official.

Summary

The FAA proposes to supersede an existing airworthiness directive (AD) for Lycoming Engines (formerly Textron Lycoming) models 320, 360, and 540 series, "Parallel Valve" reciprocating engines, with certain Engine Components Inc. (ECi) cylinder assemblies, part number (P/N) AEL65102 series "Classic Cast", installed. That AD currently requires replacing these ECi cylinder assemblies. This proposed AD would require the same actions, but would replace the "Engine Models" Table 1 and "Engines Installed On, But Not Limited To" Table 2 with corrected tables. Also, this proposed AD would correct a casting part number. This proposed AD results from reports of applicability errors found in AD 2005-26-10. We are proposing this AD to prevent loss of engine power due to cracks in the cylinder assemblies and possible engine failure caused by separation of a cylinder head.

The resulting AD
