Notice Number: NOTC2590
Excessive Fuel Flow in Cirrus SR22T Aircraft
This notice expired on
Saturday, October 7, 2023

The National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB) is providing the following information to urge Cirrus Aircraft and the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) to take action on the safety recommendations in AIR-22-04 report. They are derived from previous investigations of Cirrus SR22T accidents in which excessive fuel introduced to the engine during takeoff climb led to engine power loss. Examination of these investigations suggests a lack of system safety assessments to identify the cause and reduce the potential of the hazard from occurring. The NTSB is issuing one safety recommendation to Cirrus and one safety recommendation to the FAA.
