AD: Rolls-Royce

AD NUMBER: 2003-10-02
MANUFACTURER: Rolls Royce
SUBJECT: Airworthiness Directive 2003-10-02
SUMMARY: The FAA is adopting a new airworthiness directive (AD) for Rolls-Royce plc (RR) RB211-524C2-19 and RB211-524C2-B-19 series turbofan engines. This AD requires replacing the existing low pressure (LP) compressor location bearing assembly, intermediate pressure (IP) compressor location bearing, IP compressor bearing support housing, IP compressor rear stub shaft, LP compressor location bearing support, oil transfer connector assembly, hydraulic oil seal housing, and hydraulic oil seal with improved design parts. This AD is prompted by statistical analysis by the manufacturer of in-service premature bearing failures. The actions specified in this AD are intended to prevent LP compressor failure and uncontained disc failures, resulting in damage to the airplane.
