Compliance
You are responsible for having the actions required by this AD performed within the compliance times specified unless the actions have already been done. Determining if Action Is Required (f) Within 60 days after the effective date of this AD, determine the SN of the HP turbine disc and the IP turbine disc. If none of the HP and IP turbine discs with SNs listed in Table 1 are installed in the engine, no further action is required. (g) If one or more of the discs with SNs listed in Table 1 of this AD are installed in the engine, do the following: (1) If the engine has had a full overhaul of the turbine after the shop visit at which the Sermetel coating (Omat 7/46) was applied, no further action is required. (2) If only the HP turbine disc is listed in Table 1, and the engine has RRD Service Bulletin No. Da72-533, Revision 3, dated October 2001, incorporated, no further action is required. Removal of Sermetel Coating and Disc Inspection (3) Before accumulating 10,000 flight cycles since the coating was applied, completely remove Sermetel coating (Omat 7/46) from HP turbine discs and LP turbine discs. Information on coating removal can be found in RRD Overhaul Processes Manual, Overhaul Process 114. (4) Visually inspect HP turbine discs and LP turbine discs, and return to service discs that pass inspection. Information on disc pass or fail inspection criteria can be found in the RRD Engine Overhaul Manual, Chapter 72-6-1. Alternative Methods of
Unsafe condition
This AD is prompted by reports of Sermetel coating (Omat 7/46) applied to certain turbine discs which, if allowed to remain on the discs would react adversely with the disc dry film lubricant, causing uncontained HP or IP turbine disc failure, which could result in damage to the airplane. We are issuing this AD to prevent HP or IP turbine disc failure, which could result in damage to the airplane.
