New Work
The H80 free turbine turboprop engines have been designed for commuter,
corporate, utility, agricultural, and trainer aircraft. The H8x is a development
of the earlier M601 model. This presentation will explain the key
characteristics of both families and also highlights the new design features
of the H8x.

GE H8x Airworthiness Limitation
Airworthiness Limitations
Service Limitations: Number of equivalent flight cycles is calculated acc. to the following formula:
Ne=[Ns+A v(Nv-Ns-Np)+A p*Np]*L

Where
• Ns ....... No. of engine starts (only starts followed by take-off or several take-offs are considered)
• Nv ....... No. of all take-offs
• NP ....... No. of repeated take-offs, when the ground idling with propeller in feather position was used
before take-off (Ng≥57 %; 830 rpm > Nv ≥ 320 rpm)
• AV ....... abbreviated flight cycles coefficient, i.e. the ground idling speeds of both gas generator and
propeller were used between successive flights (Ng ≥ 57 %; Nv ≥ 830 rpm)
• AP ....... abbreviated flight cycles coefficient, when the ground idling speed of gas generator with propeller
in feather position was used between successive flights (Ng ≥ 57 %; 830 rpm > Nv ≥ 320 rpm)
• L ....... flight mission coefficient
2.2 Flight cycle definition; values of coefficients AV, AP and L

• for abbreviated flight cycles of type V, i.e. engine idling - take-off - flight - landing with reverse - engine
idling ....... AV = ref. Table 1
• for abbreviated flight cycles of type P, i.e. engine idling with propeller in feather position - take-off - flight -
landing with reverse - engine idling
• ....... AP = ref. Table 1
• flight mission coefficient ....... L = ref. Table 1
For each flight cycle it is assumed:

• aborted landing frequency ....... 0.05
• total time when take-off rating is used ....... max. 6 % of the TBO
• landing with reverse ....... at each landing

– Number of starts
– Number of take-offs
– Number of hours worked
Failure to meet the obligations

– Recognition of a higher number of starts/take-
offs/hours

H80 - Compressor
New design of axial/centrifugal

compressor for higher efficiency and
pressure ratio.
Two-stage axial compressor is followed by
a single centrifugal stage. The necessary
swirl at the axial compressor inlet is
provided by compressor inlet case struts.
Axial compressor features advanced “blisk”
design of both stages.
Diffuser vanes, rear compressor wall and
straightening vanes forms one integral.

Engine Inspections and
Troubleshooting
Maintenance Schedule
Planned Inspections – Line maintenance: Planned inspection procedures can be
distinguished by program and scope into the following types:
A. Inspection of Type 1
This inspection of Type 1 is carried out daily before launching the flight program. Inspection of
Type 1 can be performed by a pilot.
B. Inspection of Type 2
This inspection should be carried out every 100±10 hours of flight operation.
NOTE: GEAC recommends to the operators to include inspection Type 2 if the engine is left un-
operated for a period of 90 days or longer.
C. Inspection of Type 3
Inspection of Type 3 is carried out after 300 ±30 hours of flight operation or at the expire of a
period specified by the manufacturer of the individual accessories (Refer to the Table 604),
whichever comes first.
D. Inspection of Type 4
Inspection of Type 4 is carried out at the expire of 900 ±30 hours in flight operation or at period
specified by the manufacturer of the individual accessories (Refer to the Table 604), whichever
comes first.

Unplanned Inspections
• Unplanned inspections follow either an unplanned replacement of any engine part
(in extreme, the whole engine), or any accessory. Among further reasons for
unplanned inspections belong unusual stress or operating conditions, exceeds
operating limitations, unsatisfactory performance of engine. These cases are
detailed in chapter Table 605.
• As far as the engine parameters worsened significantly, it is necessary to carry out
unplanned inspection of the axial-flow compressor 1st stage blades (Ref. 72-30-01
AXIAL-FLOW COMPRESSOR, Para 1. Inspection/Check ).
• If an inspection/check of the parts or accessories of the engine or engine function
check is required after parts or accessories replacement then prescribed
procedure is presented in the applicable chapter MAINTENANCE PRACTICES,
Inspection/Check and Adjustment/Test.
• Inspections and tests checking the engine condition after some part replacement
concern the whole power unit; therefore they are dealt with in 71-00-00 POWER
UNIT - MAINTENANCE PRACTICES, Para 2. Inspection and Testing Procedures after
Parts Replacements.
• In case of accident, it is necessary to contact the organization authorized to
technical services or immediately the engine manufacturer.
123
2013/03/04th
As far as the inter-turbine temperature, torque or propeller speed have exceeded the
operation limits, ref. the following paragraphs A., B. and C.
A. Over temperature
In case of ITT exceeding either at engine start or in operation it is necessary to
investigate this event. Proceed in compliance with enclosed diagrams (Figs. 601, 602
and 603).
B. Over torque.
In case of max. torque exceeding record its value and time interval. Proceed in
compliance with enclosed diagram (Fig. 604).
C. Propeller Over speed

As far as the propeller speed limit has been exceeded, proceed in compliance with
Table 606.
