Unsafe condition
This AD results from reports of in-flight engine shutdown incidents on airplanes equipped with TAE 125-02-99 engines. This was found to be the result of a cracked high-pressure fuel line between the high-pressure pump and fuel rail. These cracks were caused by excessive vibration of the fuel line. We are issuing this AD to prevent an in-flight engine shutdown or engine fire due to a cracked fuel line.
