The FAA's summary their words, unchanged
The FAA is issuing special conditions for the General Electric Aircraft Engines (GEAE) models CT7-8A, CT7-8A5, CT7-8B, CT7-8B5, CT7-8E, CT7-8E5, CT7-8F, CT7-8F5, engines. On August 2, 2000, the FAA issued Special Conditions (SC) No. 33-003-SC for the GEAE CT7-6e, and CT7-8, turboshaft engines. The CT7-8A, CT7-8A5, CT7-8B, CT7-8B5, CT7-8E, CT7-8E5, CT7-8F, CT7-8F5 engines will have a novel or unusual rated 30-minute power, and rated continuous one engine inoperative (OEI) power. The applicable airworthiness regulations do not contain adequate or appropriate safety standards for this design feature. This document contains the additional safety standards that the Administrator considers necessary to establish a level of safety equivalent to that established by the existing airworthiness standards.
