The request should include an assessment of the effect of the modification, alteration, or repair on the unsafe condition addressed by this AD; and, if the unsafe condition has not been eliminated, the request should include specific proposed actions to address it.

To prevent damage to the airplane resulting from uncontained engine debris following a high pressure turbine (HPT) shaft fracture or a low pressure turbine (LPT) blade failure, accomplish the following: (a) For PW Model JT8D-217C and -219 engines, install improved HPT containment hardware at the next shop visit after the effective date of this AD, but no later than December 31, 2004, in accordance with PW JT8D Alert Service Bulletin (ASB) No. A6346, dated September 10, 1998, or Revision 1, dated April 23, 1999.
