Proposed FAA safety directive for Tecnam P2006T engine shock mounts

**Buyer:** Federal Aviation Administration, U.S. Department of Transportation
**Posted:** November 05, 2026
**Respond By:** December 21, 2026
**Identifier:** 2026-22564

The Federal Aviation Administration proposes a safety directive for Tecnam P2006T airplanes, rather than a procurement opportunity.
- **Government buyer:** U.S. Department of Transportation, Federal Aviation Administration (FAA); no specific office is identified.
- **OEMs mentioned:** **Costruzioni Aeronautiche Tecnam S.P.A. (Tecnam)**, the aircraft manufacturer and source of the referenced service bulletin; Airbus is mentioned only in connection with a separate notice that has no detailed requirements here.
- **Affected products:** Engine shock mounts, P/N CONO21-BS, batches 49-24 or 11-25; and the associated engine-mount structures. No total part quantities are specified. Four shock mounts are identified per engine for replacement when affected.
- **Proposed actions:** Inspect for affected shock mounts, replace them with serviceable parts, and inspect the associated engine-mount structure. Replace any engine mount with an unacceptable deficiency before further flight. Installing affected shock mounts would be prohibited.
- **Reference and scope:** Tecnam Service Bulletin SB 969-CS-Ed. 3 Rev. 1 provides the inspection and replacement procedures. The FAA estimates 131 U.S.-registered airplanes may be affected.
- **Cost information:** The notice provides estimated compliance labor costs, not a contract value: $127.50 per engine for inspection, $690 per engine for shock-mount replacement, and $3,660 per engine if engine-mount replacement is needed.

### Description

The FAA proposes a new airworthiness directive for all Costruzioni Aeronautiche Tecnam S.P.A. Model P2006T airplanes. The proposal follows reports of engine-mount-structure damage caused by defective, non-conforming engine shock mounts. It would require inspection for affected mounts and replacement with approved parts, and prohibit installing non-conforming mounts on any airplane. Comments are due December 21, 2026.
