Required actions

After the effective date of this AD, do not install any IP turbine discs, P/N FK33083, into any engine.

Unsafe condition

This AD was prompted by RR revising the life limits of certain critical engine rotating parts. We are issuing this AD to prevent the failure of critical engine rotating parts, damage to the engine, and damage to the airplane.

Affected ADs

This AD replaces AD 2012-04-01, Amendment 39-16956 (77 FR 10355, February 22, 2012).
