AD NUMBER: 2016-25-10

PRODUCT: Certain Rolls-Royce plc (RR) RB211-Trent 875-17, RB211-Trent 877-17, RB211-Trent 884-17, RB211-Trent 884B-17, RB211- Trent 892-17, RB211-Trent 892B-17, and RB211-Trent 895-17 turbofan engines.

ACTION: Final Rule

SUMMARY: This AD requires machining and inspecting parts related to the high-pressure compressor (HPC) and replacing HPC parts found defective.

The FAA is issuing this AD to correct the unsafe condition on these products.

DATES: This AD becomes effective January 20, 2017.
