This report contains all available mishap data involving failure or malfunction of the Lycoming T53 series gas turbine engine from 1 January 1970 through 31 March 1974. The data is categorized into three groups: (1) T53-L-11 series engine that powers the UH-1B, UH-1C, and UH-1D; (2) T53L-13 series engine that powers the AH-1G, TH-1G, UH-1H, and UH-1M; and (3) the turboshaft T53L-7, 15, and 701 that powers the OV-1B, OV-1C, and OV-1D. The turboshaft mishaps are placed in one group because the only aircraft concerned is the OV-1.
