Compliance

You are responsible for having the actions required by this AD performed at the next time the gas producer turbine rotor is disassembled for any reason, or within 1,750 hours time-since-last-overhaul, time-since-new, time-since-last-heavy-maintenance, or time-since-last-hot section inspection after the effective date of this AD, whichever occurs first, but no later than October 31, 2011, unless already done.

Required actions

Install a turbine energy absorbing ring, RRC P/N 23035175, or an equivalent FAA-approved turbine energy absorbing ring, in the plane of the 1st stage turbine wheel, using paragraphs 1.M., 2.A., and 2.B. of Rolls-Royce Corporation Alert Commercial Engine Bulletin No. CEB-A-1255, Revision 4, dated September 29, 2004, to do the installation. Alternative Methods of

Unsafe condition

This AD results from an unacceptable rate of uncontained 1st stage turbine wheel failures. We are issuing this AD to minimize the risk of uncontained 1st stage turbine wheel fragments from causing damage to the aircraft or damage to the second engine on twin-engine installations, which could lead to loss of control and loss of the aircraft.
