FOREWORD
1 INTRODUCTION
1.1 The Mandatory Aircraft Modifications and Inspections Summary (CAP 476) hereinafter referred to as the ‘Summary’, is published by the
Civil Aviation Authority. It summarises mandatory actions that are required to be complied with by United Kingdom Owners/Operators in
respect of aircraft, engines, propellers and equipment of United Kingdom design (BCAR, Chapter A6–6 and CAA Airworthiness Notice
No. 36 also refer).
NOTE: For similar information in respect of aircraft of foreign design, reference should be made to the CAA publication ‘Foreign Airworthiness Directives’
(for further details see CAA Airworthiness Notices No. 6 and No. 36). In certain instances, requirements for mandatory modifications and inspections are
issued by a Foreign Aviation Authority in respect of engines and equipment of foreign design, fitted to United Kingdom designed aircraft. These
requirements are published as Foreign Airworthiness Directives. Owners/Operators are reminded that for total accountability of a complete aircraft which
has installed foreign designed engines and equipment, it is necessary to make reference to both Foreign Airworthiness Directives and to the Mandatory
Aircraft Modifications and Inspections Summary.
1.2 For products of United Kingdom design, those Service Bulletins, Service News Letters or equivalent that are of mandatory status for aircraft
on the United Kingdom Register of Civil Aircraft are agreed prior to publication by consultation between the CAA and the organisation
responsible for the type design. The type design organisation’s material contains a statement that the Modification/Inspection has been
classified as mandatory by the CAA. Where the type design organisation’s material (Service Bulletins, Service News Letters or equivalent) is
revised by a raise of issue, the revision shall become applicable at the timescale prescribed by the revision.
1.3 In addition to the inspections and modifications listed in this Summary, the Mandatory Life Limitations published by the type design
organisation (see BCAR Chapter A5–3 Paragraph 4) are mandatory for applicable aircraft on the United Kingdom Register of Civil Aircraft.
The CAA is progressively publishing the source information of Mandatory Life Limitations for all aircraft, engines and equipment in this
document.
Where reference is made in this document to Mandatory Life Limitations appearing in the ‘Maintenance Schedule’ this refers to the type
design organisation’s Recommended Maintenance Schedule.
1.4 It is the responsibility of the type design organisation to distribute mandatory information to all known Owners/Operators of the aircraft
and to all National Aviation Authorities to whom those Owners/Operators are responsible. Owners/Operators of aircraft on the United
Kingdom Register are expected to take action to comply with the mandatory instructions received from the type design organisation
without waiting for their inclusion in this Summary. Owners/Operators of affected aircraft types on registers other than that of the United
Kingdom, and the National Aviation Authorities to whom these Owners/Operators are responsible, are strongly advised to secure
compliance with instructions that have been classified as mandatory by the CAA.
1.5 To assist the type design organisation in the distribution of mandatory information, Owners/Operators of United Kingdom designed aircraft
and equipment should ensure that their names and addresses are known to the appropriate type design organisation, and that any change
is notified promptly.

Civil Aviation Authority DIRECTIVE
AD No: G-2004-0004
Issue Date: 26 February 2004
This AD is issued by the UK CAA acting for and on behalf of the European Aviation Safety Agency as the Primary Aviation Authority (ICAO
Annex 8 Authority of State of Design) for the affected product(s).
Approved by the European Aviation Safety Agency under approval number 2004-1545 on 24 February 2004.
In accordance with Article 9(7)(b) of the Air Navigation Order 2000 as amended the following action required by this Airworthiness Directive
(AD) is mandatory for applicable aircraft registered in the United Kingdom.
No person may operate an aircraft to which an AD applies except in accordance with the requirements of that AD unless otherwise agreed
with the Authority of the State of Registry.
ATA 53 – STRUCTURE – INSPECTION OF PRESSURE FLOOR OVER MAIN LANDING GEAR BAY
Applicability: Model BAe 146 Series aeroplanes without Modification HCM00972A or HCM00972C embodied.
Reason: Fatigue induced cracking can occur in the fuselage pressure skin above the left and right main landing
gear (MLG) bay as a result of cabin pressure cycling. This problem was previously recognised by BAE Systems,
and the affected area is already inspected as part of Supplementary Structural Inspection (SSI) task 53-20-153.
Failure to detect the fatigue damage can allow crack lengths to increase to a size where the structural integrity of
the fuselage and its ability to maintain a pressure differential would be compromised.
Significant cracking in the fuselage pressure skin above the MLG bay has been reported following unrelated
maintenance, demonstrating that the published inspection technique (DVI) does not provide a guarantee that any
damage will be detected.
This Airworthiness Directive therefore mandates BAE Systems (Operations) Service Bulletin 53-170 dated 8
August 2003 that introduces a revised inspection technique, together with changes to the inspection thresholds
and repeat periods for the various structural configurations that are affected and instructions for repair of damage
should it be detected.
Compliance/Action:
a) Prior to the accumulation of 15,000 flights, carry out an initial inspection of the pressure floor over the main
landing gear bay for cracks, in accordance with paragraph 2 of BAE Systems (Operations) Service Bulletin
53-170 dated 8 August 2003 or later CAA approved revision. Where cracks or other damage are detected
repair in accordance with Service Bulletin 53-170 or an approved repair scheme before further flight.
b) Where the aeroplane has exceeded 14,500 flights at the effective date of this Airworthiness Directive, carry
out the initial inspection in accordance with paragraph 2 of BAE Systems (Operations) Service Bulletin 53-
170 dated 8 August 2003 or later CAA approved revision within a further 500 flights. Where cracks or other
damage are detected repair in accordance with Service Bulletin 53-170 or an approved repair scheme
before further flight.
c) Repeat the inspection in accordance with paragraph 2 of BAE Systems (Operations) Service Bulletin 53-170
dated 8 August 2003 or later CAA approved revision at an interval not exceeding 1,000 flights.
d) Prior to the accumulation of 15,000 flights, carry out an initial inspection of the pressure floor over the main
landing gear bay for cracks, in accordance with paragraph 2 of BAE Systems (Operations) Service Bulletin
53-170 dated 8 August 2003 or CAA later approved revision. Where cracks or other damage are detected
repair in accordance with Service Bulletin 53-170 or an approved repair scheme before further flight.
e) Where the aeroplane has exceeded 14,000 flights at the effective date of this Airworthiness Directive, carry
out the initial inspection in accordance with paragraph 2 of BAE Systems (Operations) Service Bulletin 53-
170 dated 8 August 2003 or CAA later approved revision within a further 1,000 flights. Where cracks or other
damage are detected repair in accordance with Service Bulletin 53-170 or an approved repair scheme
before further flight.
f) Repeat the inspection in accordance with paragraph 2 of BAE Systems (Operations) Service Bulletin 53-170
dated 8 August 2003 or later CAA approved revision at an interval not exceeding 3,000 flights.

This AD is issued by the UK CAA acting for and on behalf of the European Aviation Safety Agency as the Primary Aviation Authority (ICAO
Annex 8 Authority of State of Design) for the affected product(s).
Approved by the European Aviation Safety Agency under approval number 2004-1698 on 26 February 2004.
In accordance with Article 9(7)(b) of the Air Navigation Order 2000 as amended the following action required by this Airworthiness Directive
(AD) is mandatory for applicable aircraft registered in the United Kingdom.
No person may operate an aircraft to which an AD applies except in accordance with the requirements of that AD unless otherwise agreed
with the Authority of the State of Registry.
Applicability: Model AVRO 146-RJ Series RJ70, RJ85 and RJ100 aeroplanes certificated in any category, fitted
with Thales Avionics Distance Bearing Indicator (DBI) - part number 63543-280-1 with serial numbers 3084,
3171, 3442, 3443, 3485 to 3488, 3504, 3505, 3518 to 3521, 3528 to 3531, 3544 to 3547, 3551 to 3554, 3576,

4020, 4042 to 4045, 4070, 4071, 4099 to 4104, 4137 and 4138.
Reason: A manufacturing fault with the DBI PSU transformer could result in the propagation of the aircraft 115V
AC input power supply through the instrument onto the DBI ARINC 429 Input/Output interfaces. An analysis of
this failure concluded that at the aircraft level the failure effect could be loss of all aircraft primary navigation
instruments.
Compliance/Action: Within four months after the effective date of this Airworthiness Directive, determine the
part number and serial number of the Thales Distance Bearing Indicator installed, in accordance with BAE
Systems (Operations) Service Bulletin SB 34-371-70671A dated 19 September 2003 or later CAA approved
revision. If identified in the applicability above remove from the aeroplane and replace with a modified Thales
Distance Bearing Indicator, part number 63543-280-2, or part number 63543-280-1 with a serial number not listed
in the applicability above, or another approved Distance Bearing Indicator, in accordance with BAE Systems
(Operations) Service Bulletin SB 34-371-70671A dated 19 September 2003 or later CAA approved revision.

BAE SYSTEMS (OPERATIONS) LIMITED BAe 146 and AVRO 146-RJ (ALL SERIES)
Applicability: Models BAe 146 Series and AVRO 146-RJ Series aeroplanes with Sundstrand APU installed
(Modification HCM30373A) or Sundstrand APU installed with optional duct (Modification HCM30373A and
HCM36166C) certificated in any category.
Reason: APU exhaust duct skin temperatures within the ECS bay have been found to be higher than the
certificated maximum. The ECS bay is not a designated fire zone hence there is no fire detection or suppression
system and ventilation airflow around the APU exhaust is low.
As fuel and hydraulic pipe work pass through the ECS bay a risk of flammable fluid ignition exists if leaking fluid
contacts the APU exhaust duct skin.
Compliance/Action: Within nine months of the effective date of this Airworthiness Directive, install modification
HCM36240A which introduces insulation blankets and exhaust drain pipe blank to the Sundstrand APU exhaust
in accordance with BAE Systems (Operations) Ltd Service Bulletin 49-068-36240A dated 10 October 2003 or

AIRWORTHINESS
United Kingdom
Civil Aviation Authority DIRECTIVE
AD No: G-2004-0003
Issue Date: 24 February 2004
This AD is issued by the UK CAA acting for and on behalf of the European Aviation Safety Agency as the Primary Aviation Authority (ICAO
Annex 8 Authority of State of Design) for the affected product(s).
Approved by the European Aviation Safety Agency under approval number 2004-1538 on 24 February 2004.
In accordance with Article 9(7)(b) of the Air Navigation Order 2000 as amended the following action required by this Airworthiness Directive
(AD) is mandatory for applicable aircraft registered in the United Kingdom.
No person may operate an aircraft to which an AD applies except in accordance with the requirements of that AD unless otherwise agreed
with the Authority of the State of Registry.
Applicability: Model Jetstream 4100 all Series aeroplanes certificated in any category.
Reason: There have been two recent incidents reported by US operators of Jetstream 4100 aeroplanes
conducting emergency landings with the nose landing gear not fully extended. Initial investigations suggest that
there may be a problem of binding between the upper and lower sliding/support bearings and the NLG capsule
that is part of the shortening mechanism. Since these incidents two further reports were received from US
operators relating to migration of the lower bearing through which the NLG capsule slides as the landing gear
shortens, which is indicative of excessive friction between the bearing and capsule. High friction at the lower
bearing may sometimes result in failure of the mechanisms that secure the bearing in position. This type of failure
still allows the gear to fully extend and lock down. Whenever high friction is present at the upper bearing and/or
the lower bearing that prevents free movement of the capsule, the NLG may ultimately fail to extend.
Compliance/Action:
a) Within 300 cycles or 30 days of the effective date of this Airworthiness Directive, carry out the inspection
of the nose landing gear capsule/bearing assemblies in accordance with paragraph 2 of BAE Systems
(Operations) Service Bulletin J41-A32-082, Revision 1 and APPH Service Bulletin AIR83586-32-22
Revision 1, paragraph 2.A. (Part 1).
b) If the inspection in accordance with paragraph (a) of this Airworthiness Directive is satisfactory, carry
out the inspection of the nose landing gear capsule/bearing assemblies in accordance with paragraph 2
of BAE Systems (Operations) Service Bulletin J41-A32-082, Revision 1 and APPH Service Bulletin
AIR83586-32-22 Revision 1, paragraph 2.B. (Part 2), and then APPH Service Bulletin AIR83586-32-22
Revision 1, paragraph 2.A. (Part 1) within 3000 flight hours.
Repeat the inspection of the nose landing gear capsule/bearing assemblies in accordance with
paragraph 2 of BAE Systems (Operations) Service Bulletin J41-A32-082, Revision 1 and APPH Service
Bulletin AIR83586-32-22 Revision 1, paragraph 2.B. (Part 2), and then APPH Service Bulletin AIR83586-
32-22 Revision 1, paragraph 2.A. (Part 1), at an interval not exceeding 3,000 flight hours.
c) If the inspection in accordance with paragraph (a) of this Airworthiness Directive is not satisfactory, carry
out the inspection of the nose landing gear capsule/bearing assemblies in accordance with paragraph 2
of BAE Systems (Operations) Service Bulletin J41-A32-082, Revision 1 and APPH Service Bulletin
AIR83586-32-22 Revision 1, paragraph 2.B. (Part 2), and then APPH Service Bulletin AIR83586-32-22
Revision 1, paragraph 2.A. (Part 1) prior to further flight.
d) If the inspection in accordance with paragraph (c) of this Airworthiness Directive is satisfactory carry out
the inspection of the nose landing gear capsule/bearing assemblies in accordance with paragraph 2 of
BAE Systems (Operations) Service Bulletin J41-A32-082, Revision 1 and APPH Service Bulletin
AIR83586-32-22 Revision 1, paragraph 2.A. (Part 1) within 600 flight hours.
e) If the inspection in accordance with paragraph (c) of this Airworthiness Directive is not satisfactory,
remove the NLG and install a replacement NLG.
f) Upon installation of a replacement NLG carry out the inspection of the nose landing gear
capsule/bearing assemblies in accordance with paragraph 2 of BAE Systems (Operations) Service
Bulletin J41-A32-082, Revision 1 and APPH Service Bulletin AIR83586-32-22 Revision 1, paragraph
2.A. (Part 1).
Complete the inspection of the replacement NLG in accordance with paragraph (b) through (e) of this
Airworthiness Directive, as applicable.

Approved by the European Aviation Safety Agency under approval number 2004-7765 on 16 July 2004.
In accordance with Article 9(7)(b) of the Air Navigation Order 2000 as amended the following action required by this Airworthiness Directive
(AD) is mandatory for applicable aircraft registered in the United Kingdom.
No person may operate an aircraft to which an AD applies except in accordance with the requirements of that AD unless otherwise agreed
with the Authority of the State of Registry.
Manufacturer(s): Scottish Aviation Ltd, Jetstream Aircraft Ltd, British Aerospace (Regional Aircraft) Ltd, British
Aerospace (Operations) Ltd, BAE Systems (Operations) Ltd.
Applicability: Model British Aerospace Regional Aircraft Jetstream 3200 Series aeroplanes, certificated in any
category.
Reason: A review of the Jetstream 3200 structure has been completed as part of an aircraft life extension
investigation. This has generated a series of additional safety related inspections of the fuselage and wing
structures. Details of these inspections were published in BAE Systems Service Bulletin (SB) 51-JA020940,
Original Issue dated 22 August 2003.
This Airworthiness Directive (AD) supersedes CAA AD 003-05-2003 and mandates the contents of Revision 1 of
BAE Systems Service Bulletin 51-JA020940. The SB now contains revised inspection techniques deemed
necessary to adequately accomplish certain inspection tasks, and to specify grace periods applicable for aircraft
that have exceeded the initial inspection thresholds specified in the SB.
Compliance/Action: From the effective date of this AD perform the inspections at the threshold and intervals
specified in BAE Systems Service Bulletin 51-JA020940, Revision 1, STRUCTURES - Introduction of New and
Revised Inspections for Fatigue Damage, dated 20 May 2004, or later EASA approved revision. If any damage is
found, repairs must be performed in accordance with the aircraft structural repair manual or other approved repair
scheme.
For the inspection task defined in BAE Systems Service Bulletin 51-JA020940, Revision 1, Appendix 1,
Paragraph M, Part 14 (Inspection of Window Pans), attention is drawn to the fact that the Service Bulletin in
original issue contained a typographical error. This may have resulted in confusion as to the level of inspection
required. If a detailed visual inspection was performed with the windows removed then full credit can be taken for
the accomplishment of the initial inspection. If a detailed visual inspection was performed with the windows
installed the clarified Non Destructive Inspection task stated in BAE Systems Service Bulletin 51-JA020940,
Revision 1, Appendix 1, Paragraph M, Part 14, must be performed before 1 July 2005. Thereafter, all subsequent
Window Pan inspections are to be accomplished on or before the repeat interval stated in BAE Systems Service
Bulletin 51-JA020940, Revision 1 or later EASA approved revision.
Credit may be taken for the remaining inspections previously accomplished in accordance with BAE Systems
Service Bulletin 51-JA020940, Original issue, where the inspection task is unchanged by BAE Systems Service
Bulletin 51-JA020940, Revision 1.
Notes: New requirements introduced by SB 51-JA020940, Revision 1, are stated in Paragraph M - Approval,
Appendix 2, Part 1. For the tasks defined in SB 51-JA020940, Revision 1, Appendix 1, Paragraph M, Parts 14
and 15, where the initial inspection interval is stated as 25,800 landings or 10 years, the requirement: whichever
occurs first, is to apply. Where the Repeat inspection interval is stated as: 4400 landings or 2 years, the
requirement: which ever occurs first, is to apply. Where the inspection interval is stated as: 4400 landings or D
check, this is to be read as: 4400 landings or 2 years whichever occurs first.

1. The following list does not cover the conversion of the military mark T10 aircraft to the civil mark 22 or 22A. Application should be made to De Havilland Support Ltd,
Building 213, Duxford Airfield CB2 4QR (Tel No. 01223 830090, Fax No. 01223 830085) for full details of the modification required to convert ex-military Chipmunk
aircraft to the required civil standard.
2. Modification H210 and that part of H212 concerned with sealing the Horseshoe deflector plate were originally introduced to prevent fuel entering the fuselage via
the access door in the fuselage underside.
As these modifications were not incorporated in RAF Chipmunk aircraft and experience has shown that fuel has not as a consequence entered the fuselage those
modifications are no longer classified as mandatory. That part of modification H212 requiring sealing of the vent fairing has been incorporated in RAF Chipmunk
aircraft and the mandatory classification still applies.
Similarly Modification H217 was not incorporated in RAF Chipmunk aircraft and as a result of satisfactory operational experience is no longer classified as mandatory.

2855 PRE 80 – Inspection of fuel vapour return lines. Following a fire in the air believed to have been
caused by a leaking rubber hose joint in the fuel
vapour return line situated adjacent to electrical
equipment, all Dakota aircraft should now have been
examined to ascertain that no rubber hose and clip
type joints occurred in the fuel system pipe lines in the
wheel bay including the vapour vent return line. Any
such hose and clip joints in the wheel bay should have
been eliminated by the substitution of all metal joints.
2856 PRE 80 CAA Letter Before the CAA will issue or renew Certificates of Airworthiness for Dakota (Douglas C47) aircraft the
ACC/1214 following requirements must be fulfilled:
dated
14–4–67 1 (a) Dakota 3 Aircraft must be fitted with Pratt and Whitney S1C3G, R1830–49, –57, –82, –92 or
–96 engines.
(b) Dakota 4 Aircraft must be fitted with Pratt and Whitney S3C4G, S4C4G, R1830–43, –43A, –67,
–90C or 90D engines.
(c) All these engines must have installed a reduction gear of 16.9.
Reduction gear nameplates or housings must be marked ‘16/9’ to denote the gear ratio and ‘R’ to
indicate rigid or ‘D’ to indicate non-rigid (spline coupled). Engine log books must also be annotated
but only overhaul organisations may mark the gear housings.
(d) Propeller blades 6477A–0 and interchangeable blades 6277–0 must not be used with hub
23E50 if rigid type reduction gears are installed.

See also FAA Aircraft Data Sheet A669 for other propeller blade and hub combinations and
limitations.
2 On Dakota 4 Aircraft installed with Pratt and Whitney S4C4G or R1830–90C engines, the 2 speed
supercharger gear controls must be positively locked for operation in low gear only. This should be
done by a tiebar on the rear cover of the engine, the disconnection of the engine controls in the
power plant bay, and a note at the supercharger control in the cockpit. Approval is granted only in
certain aerial work circumstances to use this control.
3 Dakota 5 Aircraft are fitted with R1830–94 engines and are certified in the Private Category only.
4 Dakota 6 are similar to Dakota aircraft having R1830–90D or 90C engines, undercarriage doors,
Goodyear single disc brakes, and quicker undercarriage retraction. Also Paddle blade type propeller
Hamilton 23E50–473–6519–18.
5 At conversion from military to civil use the outer wing and centre section lower surface attachment
angles and doublers must be changed to the standards of AD66–18–2 irrespective of the total hours
flown by the aircraft.
6 The non-ram air intake system, if installed must be made inoperative by positively locking the intake
door in the closed position and rivetting a blanking plate over the control lever quadrant to prevent
inadvertent operation, in accordance with Douglas Drawing 5115226 or equivalent Forward facing
filtered air intakes are not approved by the FAA. See also Item 18.

Douglas Service Bulletin No. 261 and tyres of 12 ply rating or over must be fitted.
12 When AN4/7A and AN4/10A bolts are used for mainplane attachments they must be torque loaded
to 135 to 150 in/lb. The only British equivalent bolts are A25–4E, –5E and –6E and these must be
torque loaded to 130 to 135 in/lb. American and British bolts must not be mixed on any one aircraft
and similar type stiff nuts must be used being assembled dry.
14 Several types of fire warning lights may be fitted in the cockpit if a hinged night hood is fitted or if a
rotary dimmer switch is fitted; these must be wire locked in ‘day’ position using fusewire.
15 The cabin lining, upholstery, etc. should be fire resistant (ARB Specification No. 8). The seating layout
must be approved by the Authority and suitable cabin fire extinguishers must be provided.

AD No: G-2003-0012
Issue Date: 22 October 2003
This AD is issued by the UK CAA as the Primary Aviation Authority (ICAO Annex 8 Authority of State of Design) for the affected product(s).
In accordance with Article 9(7)(b) of the Air Navigation Order 2000 as amended the following action required by this Airworthiness Directive
(AD) is mandatory for applicable aircraft registered in the United Kingdom.
No person may operate an aircraft to which an AD applies except in accordance with the requirements of that AD unless otherwise agreed with
the Authority of the State of Registry.
Applicability: Britten-Norman BN2, BN2A, BN2B, BN2T, BN2T-4R, BN2T Islander series and BN2A-Mk III
Trislander series aeroplanes certificated in any category, fitted with Futair F1005 series or BN Group Ltd type NB-
16-2045 passenger seats, without modification NB-M-1756.
Reason: An incident has been reported where during boarding and loading of passengers on to an aeroplane,
the tubing on a passenger seat rear frame failed.
Compliance/Action: Prior to the accumulation of 100 hours time-in-service (TIS) or within the next 100 landings
after the effective date of this AD, whichever occurs first; and thereafter at intervals not to exceed 100 hours TIS
or 100 landings, visually inspect each passenger seat frame in accordance with B-N Group Service Bulletin SB
286, Issue 1, dated 1 July 2003. If damage is found replace the seat frame with a serviceable item prior to further
flight.
Repetitive inspections required by this AD may be terminated by accomplishment of B-N Group modification NB-
M-1756 Part 2.

This AD is issued by the UK CAA as the Primary Aviation Authority (ICAO Annex 8 Authority of State of Design) for the affected
product(s).
In accordance with Article 9(7)(b) of the Air Navigation Order 2000 as amended the following action required by this Airworthiness Directive
(AD) is mandatory for applicable aircraft registered in the United Kingdom.
No person may operate an aircraft to which an AD applies except in accordance with the requirements of that AD unless otherwise agreed

Applicability: Britten-Norman BN2, BN2A, BN2B, BN2T, BN2T-4R Islander series and BN2A Mk III Trislander
series aeroplanes certificated in any category, fitted with FHL (formerly Fairey Hydraulics Ltd) landing gear.
Reason: FHL landing gears and components installed in subject aeroplanes have finite fatigue lives that had
not previously been published. This could result in components remaining in service beyond their finite fatigue
lives.
Compliance/Action:
a) Within one month after the effective date of this AD, determine the number of landings accumulated on
all FHL main and nose landing gears using the criteria stated in B-N Group Service Bulletin SB 298,
Issue 1, dated 1 July 2003. Any landing gear assemblies or components that have exceeded the fatigue
lives stated in Paragraph 6 of B-N Group Service Bulletin SB 298, Issue 1, dated 1 July 2003, must be
removed from service immediately.
b) From the effective date of this AD, Owners/Operators must maintain records of the number of landings
experienced by all FHL landing gears that remain in service.
Note: This is required to assure the fatigue lives of these landing gears are not exceeded.

Civil Aviation Authority DIRECTIVE
AD No: G-2004-0021
Issue Date: 25 August 2004
This AD is issued by the UK CAA acting for and on behalf of the European Aviation Safety Agency as the Primary Aviation Authority (ICAO
Annex 8 Authority of State of Design) for the affected product(s).
Approved by the European Aviation Safety Agency under approval number 2004-9032 on 24 August 2004.
In accordance with Article 9(7)(b) of the Air Navigation Order 2000 as amended the following action required by this Airworthiness Directive
(AD) is mandatory for applicable aircraft registered in the United Kingdom.
No person may operate an aircraft to which an AD applies except in accordance with the requirements of that AD unless otherwise agreed
with the Authority of the State of Registry.
Applicability: Models SD3-30, SD3-60, SD3-Sherpa and SD3-60 Sherpa aeroplanes, certificated in any
category.
Reason: The FAA and JAA have examined the underlying safety issues involved in recent fuel tank explosions
on several large transport aeroplanes, including the adequacy of existing regulations, the service history of
aeroplanes subject to those regulations, and existing maintenance practices for fuel tank systems. As a result of
those findings, the FAA issued a regulation titled “Transport Airplane Fuel Tank Systems Design Review,
Flammability Reduction and Maintenance and Inspection Requirements”. In addition to new airworthiness
standards for transport aeroplanes and new maintenance requirements, the rule included Special Federal
Aviation Regulation No. 88. JAA worked closely with FAA and published their equivalent requirements in JAA
Fuel Tank Safety Recommendation Letter reference 04/00/02/07/03-L024 dated 3 February 2003.
Among other actions, SFAR 88 and the JAA Safety Recommendation Letter require certain type design holders
to substantiate that their fuel tank systems can prevent ignition sources in the fuel tanks. This requirement applies
to type design holders for large turbine-powered transport aeroplanes and for subsequent modifications to those
aeroplanes. It requires them to perform design review and to develop design changes and maintenance
procedures if their designs do not meet the new fuel tank safety standards. Airworthiness Directives will be
adopted to mandate any changes found necessary to address unsafe conditions identified as a result of these
reviews.
In evaluating these reviews FAA and JAA established four criteria intended to define the unsafe conditions
associated with fuel tank systems that require corrective actions. The percentage of operating time during which
fuel tanks are exposed to flammable conditions is one of these criteria. The other three criteria address the failure
types under evaluation: single failures, single failures in combination with other latent condition(s) and in-service
failure experience. For all four criteria, the evaluations included consideration of previous actions taken that may
mitigate the need for further action.
Based on this process, EASA has determined that the actions identified in this Airworthiness Directive (AD) are
necessary to reduce the potential of ignition sources inside fuel tanks, which, in combination with flammable fuel
vapours in fuel tank explosions and consequent loss of the aeroplane. In this case, two additional bonding
jumpers between the fuel vent pipes and the aircraft structure are required, as are additional inspections including
bonding/insulation checks on internal components of the fuel tank.
Compliance/Action: Compliance/Action
a) Within 1 month after the effective date of this AD, insert Shorts Flight Manual Advance Amendment Bulletin

b) Within 6 months after the effective date of this AD, perform the following tasks in accordance with the
applicable Shorts Service Bulletin or later EASA approved revision specified in Table 1 of this AD.
Table 1
i. Carry out an insulation resistance check of the fuel tank float switches in accordance with Section 2 Part
A of the applicable Service Bulletin.
ii. Inspect the condition of the Fuel Quantity Gauging System sensor cables and the cable supports inside
the fuel tanks in accordance with Section 2 Part B of the applicable Service Bulletin.
iii. Inspect the integrity of the existing bonding of the 2 off vent pipes inside cell 2 of the forward fuel tank in
accordance with Section 2 Part C of the applicable Service Bulletin.
iv. Install new bonding jumper wires between the forward and aft fuel tank vent pipes and the aircraft
structure in accordance Section 2 Part D of the applicable Service Bulletin.
Any defect identified as a result of performing the tasks specified in Paragraph b) must be rectified prior to further
flight.
c) Upon completion of Paragraph b) of this AD, compliance with section 5-20-01 and 5-20-02 of the applicable
Aircraft Maintenance Manual introduced as specified in Table 1 (or later approved AMM revision) of this AD is
mandatory.

Applicability: Models SD3-60, SD3-Sherpa and SD3-60 Sherpa aeroplanes, certificated in any category.
Reason: Following an incident on an SD3 aircraft where a main landing gear rear pintle pin fork end failed.
Investigation by the landing gear manufacturer determined that the primary cause of the failure was attributable to
corrosion under the bushes in the fork end. Deteriorated or missing sealant around the edges of the bushes
allowed the ingress of moisture and allowed the onset of corrosion. The CAA published Airworthiness Directive

Bulletin SD360-32-33 to detect and correct corroded components.
Since the publication of AD 007-08-92 the aircraft manufacturer has informed the CAA of another incident on an
SD3 aircraft where the pintle pin fork end had cracked. This AD supersedes CAA AD 007-08-92 and requires
further inspections to identify damaged pintle pin fork ends.
Compliance/Action: Required at the next ‘B’ check, but no later than three months after the effective date of this
AD, Carry out an inspection of the main landing gear rear pintle pin assemblies for correctly applied sealant in
accordance with Shorts Service Bulletin SD360-32-37, SD3 SHERPA-32-5 or SD360 SHERPA-32-4 Section 1.C
Part A, as applicable or later EASA approved revision.
If the sealant is incorrectly applied, at the next ‘C’ Check, but no later than 12 months after the effective date of
this AD, perform a magnetic flaw detection inspection of the rear pintle pin fork ends in accordance with Shorts
Service Bulletin SD360-32-37, SD3 SHERPA-32-5 or SD360 SHERPA-32-4 Section 1.C Part B, as applicable or
later EASA approved revision.
Cracked pintle pin fork ends must be replaced with a serviceable item that has been inspected in accordance with
this AD before further flight.

Compliance/Action: Required at next 4800 Flight Hour structural inspection but no later than 30 May 2004,
unless previously accomplished.
A(i) Inspect vertical stabiliser shear attachment fittings part numbers SD3-12-6978, SD3-32-6384, SD3-12-
6923 and SD3-32-6441 (or SD3-32-6694) for corrosion in accordance with Section 2 Accomplishment
Instructions of Short Brothers Service Bulletin SD360-53-45 dated December 2003 or later CAA
approved revision. Aircraft previously inspected in accordance with Short Brothers Service Bulletin
SD360-53-44 are deemed to have satisfied the requirement for this initial inspection provided no
corrosion was detected. Where corrosion was detected and the affected fitting has not yet been
replaced, a review of the inspection findings must be made to determine if the corrosion was within the
acceptable limits specified in SD360-53-45.
(ii) Any corrosion detected on any of the fittings and assessed to be unacceptable must be replaced before
further flight in accordance with Section 2 Part B of Short Brothers Service Bulletin SD360-53-45 dated
December 2003 or later CAA approved revision.
(iii) Where corrosion is detected on any of the fittings and assessed to be within acceptance limits, a
repetitive inspection of each affected fitting shall be performed every 6 months commencing from the
date of the initial inspection, until the fitting is replaced. Replacement of all corroded fittings is
required no later than 18 months from the date of the initial inspection carried out in accordance with
paragraph A(i) above.
B Where no corrosion is detected or from the date of replacement, future inspections of the fittings shall
be carried out in accordance with Short Brothers Recommended Maintenance Programme (Section 5-
26-53, ATA 53-40, Item 12(d) and Section 5-26-55, ATA 55-30, Item 5(a) or equivalent reference in

Civil Aviation Authority DIRECTIVE
AD No: G-2004-0021
Issue Date: 25 August 2004
This AD is issued by the UK CAA acting for and on behalf of the European Aviation Safety Agency as the Primary Aviation Authority (ICAO
Annex 8 Authority of State of Design) for the affected product(s).
Approved by the European Aviation Safety Agency under approval number 2004-9032 on 24 August 2004.
In accordance with Article 9(7)(b) of the Air Navigation Order 2000 as amended the following action required by this Airworthiness Directive
(AD) is mandatory for applicable aircraft registered in the United Kingdom.
No person may operate an aircraft to which an AD applies except in accordance with the requirements of that AD unless otherwise agreed
with the Authority of the State of Registry.
Applicability: Models SD3-30, SD3-60, SD3-Sherpa and SD3-60 Sherpa aeroplanes, certificated in any
category.
Reason: The FAA and JAA have examined the underlying safety issues involved in recent fuel tank explosions
on several large transport aeroplanes, including the adequacy of existing regulations, the service history of
aeroplanes subject to those regulations, and existing maintenance practices for fuel tank systems. As a result of
those findings, the FAA issued a regulation titled “Transport Airplane Fuel Tank Systems Design Review,
Flammability Reduction and Maintenance and Inspection Requirements”. In addition to new airworthiness
standards for transport aeroplanes and new maintenance requirements, the rule included Special Federal
Aviation Regulation No. 88. JAA worked closely with FAA and published their equivalent requirements in JAA
Fuel Tank Safety Recommendation Letter reference 04/00/02/07/03-L024 dated 3 February 2003.
Among other actions, SFAR 88 and the JAA Safety Recommendation Letter require certain type design holders
to substantiate that their fuel tank systems can prevent ignition sources in the fuel tanks. This requirement applies
to type design holders for large turbine-powered transport aeroplanes and for subsequent modifications to those
aeroplanes. It requires them to perform design review and to develop design changes and maintenance
procedures if their designs do not meet the new fuel tank safety standards. Airworthiness Directives will be
adopted to mandate any changes found necessary to address unsafe conditions identified as a result of these
reviews.
In evaluating these reviews FAA and JAA established four criteria intended to define the unsafe conditions
associated with fuel tank systems that require corrective actions. The percentage of operating time during which
fuel tanks are exposed to flammable conditions is one of these criteria. The other three criteria address the failure
types under evaluation: single failures, single failures in combination with other latent condition(s) and in-service
failure experience. For all four criteria, the evaluations included consideration of previous actions taken that may
mitigate the need for further action.
Based on this process, EASA has determined that the actions identified in this Airworthiness Directive (AD) are
necessary to reduce the potential of ignition sources inside fuel tanks, which, in combination with flammable fuel
vapours in fuel tank explosions and consequent loss of the aeroplane. In this case, two additional bonding
jumpers between the fuel vent pipes and the aircraft structure are required, as are additional inspections including
bonding/insulation checks on internal components of the fuel tank.
Compliance/Action: Compliance/Action
a) Within 1 month after the effective date of this AD, insert Shorts Flight Manual Advance Amendment Bulletin
1/2004 or later EASA approved revision in the Aircraft Flight Manual.
b) Within 6 months after the effective date of this AD, perform the following tasks in accordance with the
applicable Shorts Service Bulletin or later EASA approved revision specified in Table 1 of this AD.
Table 1
i. Carry out an insulation resistance check of the fuel tank float switches in accordance with Section 2 Part
A of the applicable Service Bulletin.
ii. Inspect the condition of the Fuel Quantity Gauging System sensor cables and the cable supports inside
the fuel tanks in accordance with Section 2 Part B of the applicable Service Bulletin.
iii. Inspect the integrity of the existing bonding of the 2 off vent pipes inside cell 2 of the forward fuel tank in
accordance with Section 2 Part C of the applicable Service Bulletin.
iv. Install new bonding jumper wires between the forward and aft fuel tank vent pipes and the aircraft
structure in accordance Section 2 Part D of the applicable Service Bulletin.
Any defect identified as a result of performing the tasks specified in Paragraph b) must be rectified prior to further

Civil Aviation Authority DIRECTIVE
AD No: G-2004-0022
Issue Date: 25 August 2004
This AD is issued by the UK CAA acting for and on behalf of the European Aviation Safety Agency as the Primary Aviation Authority (ICAO
Annex 8 Authority of State of Design) for the affected product(s).
Approved by the European Aviation Safety Agency under approval number 2004-9033 on 24 August 2004.
In accordance with Article 9(7)(b) of the Air Navigation Order 2000 as amended the following action required by this Airworthiness Directive
(AD) is mandatory for applicable aircraft registered in the United Kingdom.
No person may operate an aircraft to which an AD applies except in accordance with the requirements of that AD unless otherwise agreed
with the Authority of the State of Registry.
ATA 32 - LANDING GEAR – MAIN LANDING GEAR – REAR PINTLE PIN – INSPECTION OF
BUSH ASSEMBLY AT FORK END
Applicability: Models SD3-60, SD3-Sherpa and SD3-60 Sherpa aeroplanes, certificated in any category.
Reason: Following an incident on an SD3 aircraft where a main landing gear rear pintle pin fork end failed.
Investigation by the landing gear manufacturer determined that the primary cause of the failure was attributable to
corrosion under the bushes in the fork end. Deteriorated or missing sealant around the edges of the bushes
allowed the ingress of moisture and allowed the onset of corrosion. The CAA published Airworthiness Directive
(AD) 007-08-92 which mandated accomplishment of Messier Dowty Service Bulletin 32-70SD and Shorts Service
Bulletin SD360-32-33 to detect and correct corroded components.
Since the publication of AD 007-08-92 the aircraft manufacturer has informed the CAA of another incident on an
SD3 aircraft where the pintle pin fork end had cracked. This AD supersedes CAA AD 007-08-92 and requires
further inspections to identify damaged pintle pin fork ends.
Compliance/Action: Required at the next ‘B’ check, but no later than three months after the effective date of this
AD, Carry out an inspection of the main landing gear rear pintle pin assemblies for correctly applied sealant in
accordance with Shorts Service Bulletin SD360-32-37, SD3 SHERPA-32-5 or SD360 SHERPA-32-4 Section 1.C
Part A, as applicable or later EASA approved revision.
If the sealant is incorrectly applied, at the next ‘C’ Check, but no later than 12 months after the effective date of
this AD, perform a magnetic flaw detection inspection of the rear pintle pin fork ends in accordance with Shorts
Service Bulletin SD360-32-37, SD3 SHERPA-32-5 or SD360 SHERPA-32-4 Section 1.C Part B, as applicable or
later EASA approved revision.
Cracked pintle pin fork ends must be replaced with a serviceable item that has been inspected in accordance with
this AD before further flight.

AIRWORTHINESS
United Kingdom
Civil Aviation Authority DIRECTIVE
AD No: G-2004-0013
Issue Date: 21 June 2004
This AD is issued by the UK CAA acting for and on behalf of the European Aviation Safety Agency as the Primary Aviation Authority (ICAO
Annex 8 Authority of State of Design) for the affected product(s).
Approved by the European Aviation Safety Agency under approval number on 2004-6425 on 17 June 2004.
In accordance with Article 9(7)(b) of the Air Navigation Order 2000 as amended the following action required by this Airworthiness Directive
(AD) is mandatory for applicable aircraft registered in the United Kingdom.
No person may operate an aircraft to which an AD applies except in accordance with the requirements of that AD unless otherwise agreed
with the Authority of the State of Registry.
Applicability: T67A, T67B, T67C Series, T67M, T67M-MKII, T67M200, T67M260 and T67M260-T3A aeroplanes,
certificated in any category.
Reason: Reports of a case of exfoliation (layer corrosion) in the forward tailplane attachment brackets, flap
centre drive brackets and seat belt attachment brackets of a T67A aircraft previously lead to the issue of CAA AD
005-07-97. A recent report of exfoliation on the tailplane mounted, fuselage to tailplane aft attachment brackets
on a T67C aircraft has resulted in the need to supersede AD 005-07-97. This AD extends applicability to include
additional T67 aircraft models, revises inspection criteria and reiterates repetitive inspection intervals.
Compliance/Action: At the next Annual check after the effective date of this AD, and thereafter at intervals not
to exceed 12 months, inspect the aluminium fittings detailed in Slingsby Aviation Service Bulletin 127 Issue 3 or
later EASA approved revision. If corrosion is found as a result of these inspections, replace the affected
component(s) before further flight.
Reference Publications: Slingsby Aviation Service Bulletin 127, dated 12 May 2004, may be obtained from
Slingsby Aviation Limited, Kirkbymoorside, York YO62 6EZ, United Kingdom.
Remarks: Enquiries regarding this Airworthiness Directive should be directed to Civil Aviation Authority, Safety
Regulation Group, Certification and Approvals Department, Aviation House, Gatwick Airport South, West Sussex,

DIRECTIVE
Civil Aviation Authority
AD No: G-2003-0001
Issue Date: 15 July 2003
This AD is issued by the UK CAA as the Primary Aviation Authority (ICAO Annex 8 Authority of State of Design) for the affected product(s).
In accordance with Article 9(7)(b) of the Air Navigation Order 2000 as amended the following action required by this Airworthiness Directive (AD)
is mandatory for applicable aircraft registered in the United Kingdom.
No person may operate an aircraft to which an AD applies except in accordance with the requirements of that AD unless otherwise agreed with the
Authority of the State of Registry.
Applicability: Model RB211 Trent 556-61 engines installed on Airbus A340 aircraft – all engines prior to serial
number 71125 except for those serial numbers listed in Rolls-Royce Alert Service Bulletin RB.211-73-AE200
dated 11 July 2003.
Reason: Fuel was observed to be running from the engine fan cowl doors during aircraft taxi in. Subsequent
investigation identified the source of the fuel leak to be permanent distortion of the face of the fuel tube
connecting flanges at the fuel flow meter. The distortion of the flange is not aggravated by service use but
exposure to fuel pressures extrudes the seal through the gap between the flanges, leading to a fuel leak, which
could rapidly increase in flight.
Compliance/Action: Required within 2 months after the effective date of this Directive, inspect the space
between the seal and the HP fuel tube adaptor face on each side of the fuel flow transmitter in accordance with
the accomplishment instructions specified in Rolls-Royce Alert Service Bulletin RB.211-73-AE200 dated 11 July
2003 or later CAA approved revision.

These engines are installed on Boeing 747 series aeroplanes and Lockheed L-1011 series aeroplanes.
Reason: An RB211-524B4 engine suffered a combustion case burn-through as a result of combustor head
break-up; this engine had been previously inspected within the inspection interval specified in revision 8 of the
Rolls-Royce Service Bulletin RB211-72-B482. The revision 9 to Rolls-Royce Service Bulletin RB211-72-B482 is
issued as an Alert Service Bulletin RB211-72-AB482 in accordance with the new procedures of JAR39; this
revision reduces the inspection interval of RB211-524B series engines from 400 cycles to 200 cycles in line with
all other engine marks. There are no other changes to the previous inspection requirements for all other
engines.
Compliance/Action:
At the threshold and within the intervals detailed below, inspect the combustion head section for break-up in
accordance with the Accomplishment Instructions (paragraph 3A) and subject to the Acceptance Limits
(paragraph 1E) of Rolls-Royce Alert Service Bulletin RB211-72-AB482 revision 9 dated 28 July 2003.

For those combustion head sections, which have exceeded 1600 cycles since new and which have not been
previously inspected to Service Bulletin RB211-72-B482 revision 8, inspect within 100 cycles from the effective
date of this Directive.
Repeat the inspection at intervals not exceeding 200 cycles thereafter.
b. The head section has previously been repaired in accordance with FRS5367/B,
Inspect, unless already accomplished, the combustion head section between 1800 and 2200 cycles since the
repair FRS5367/B was carried out. For those combustion head sections, which have exceeded 2200 cycles
since repair FRS5367/B and which have not been previously inspected to Service Bulletin RB211-72-B482
revision 8, inspect within 200 cycles from the effective date of this Directive.
Repeat the inspection at intervals not exceeding 400 cycles thereafter.
c. The head section has been repaired by means other than FRS5367/B,
Inspect, unless already accomplished, the combustion head section between 500 and 700 cycles since the last
head section repair was carried out. For those combustion head sections, which have exceeded 700 cycles
since repair and which have not been previously inspected to Service Bulletin RB211-72-B482 revision 8,
inspect within 100 cycles from the effective date of this Directive.
Repeat the inspection at intervals not exceeding 200 cycles thereafter.

Civil Aviation Authority DIRECTIVE
AD No: G-2004-0008
Issue Date: 29 April 2004
This AD is issued by the UK CAA acting for and behalf of the European Aviation Safety Agency as the Primary Aviation Authority (ICAO
Annex 8 Authority of State of Design) for the affected product(s).
Approved by the European Aviation Safety Agency under Approval Number 2004-2827 on 23 March 2004.
In accordance with Article 9(7)(b) of the Air Navigation Order 2000 as amended the following action required by this Airworthiness Directive
(AD) is mandatory for applicable aircraft registered in the United Kingdom.
No person may operate an aircraft to which an AD applies except in accordance with the requirements of that AD unless otherwise agreed
with the Authority of the State of Registry.
Applicability: Models RB211 Trent 875-17, 877-17, 884-17, 884B-17, 892-17, 892B-17, 895-17 engines, fitted
with fan blades to Rolls-Royce Service Bulletin RB211-72-C629 (part numbers; FK30842, FK 30840, FK30838),
RB211-72-C905 (part numbers; FW12960, FW13175, FW12961, FW12962), RB211-72-D390 (part number;
FW18548), OR RB211-72-E044 (part number; FW23552) standards installed on Boeing 777 aeroplanes
certificated in any category.
Reason: There has been one incident of fan blade failure and several instances of fan blade roots found cracked
on Trent 800 engines in service. The cracking has been shown to be the result of significant operating stress
levels and a breakdown of lubrication between the fan blade root and the fan disc slot. Cracking can be avoided
by maintaining lubrication of the fan blade roots. A risk analysis has concluded that mandatory action instructing
fan blade root lubrication is necessary to avoid an unacceptable risk of a multiple fan blade failure, which would
be a potentially hazardous event.
Airworthiness Directive (AD) G-2003-0015 introduced reduced intervals between re-lubrications (iaw Rolls-Royce
Service Bulletin RB211-72-AD347) for SB72-C905, SB72-D390 and SB72-E044 standard fan blades. This
change was prompted by observations of poor blade root condition on service run engines, which showed that
the rate of deterioration of lubrication was higher than previously believed. A Terminating Action for SB72-C629
and SB72-C905 standard of fan blades was also introduced.
This AD (G-2004-0008) supersedes AD’s G-2003-0015 and 001-02-2001, and has been issued for the following
reasons:
a) To introduce re-lubrication of fan blade roots to Rolls-Royce Service Bulletin RB211-72-C905, 72-D390
and 72–E044 standards, which have never been removed since delivery of the new engine, to have a
1200 cycle threshold as stated in Rolls-Royce Service Bulletin RB211-72-AD347 R6.
b) To introduce the amended Mandatory repeat inspection requirements of Rolls-Royce Service Bulletin
RB211-72-AD344 R7, applicable to Rolls-Royce Service Bulletin RB211-72-C629 and –C905 standard
fan blades, thereby superseding the requirements of AD 001-02-2001.
Compliance/Action:
1) Inspection of Fan Blade Root (in accordance with R-R Alert Service Bulletin RB211-72-AD344 R7)
TABLE 2 BLADES NOT FEATURING SB72-C905 BUT RELUBRICATED AT 600 CYCLES FREQUENCY OR LESS
TABLE 3 BLADES WHICH (a) INCLUDED SB72-C905 FROM NEW OR (b) WERE REWORKED TO SB72-
C905 AT LESS THAN 600 CYCLES SINCE NEW OR PREVIOUS REWORK TO SB72-C629 OR (c)
REWORKED TO SB72-C905 WITH VERIFIABLE RE-LUBRICATION AT INTERVALS NOT EXCEEDING 600
CYCLES
TABLE 4 BLADES REWORKED TO SB72-C905 AT GREATER THAN 600 CYCLES SINCE NEW OR PREVIOUS RE-
WORK TO SB72-C629
2) Re-lubricate fan blade root (in accordance with R-R Alert Service Bulletin RB211-72-AD347 R6)
a) Fan blades to Rolls-Royce Service Bulletin RB211-72-C629, -C905, -D390, and -E044 standards;

Civil Aviation Authority DIRECTIVE
AD No: G-2004-0009
Issue Date: 27 May 2004
This AD is issued by the UK CAA acting for and on behalf of the European Aviation Safety Agency as the Primary Aviation Authority (ICAO
Annex 8 Authority of State of Design) for the affected product(s).
Approved by the European Aviation Safety Agency under approval number 2004-5258 on 18 May 2004.
In accordance with Article 9(7)(b) of the Air Navigation Order 2000 as amended the following action required by this Airworthiness Directive
(AD) is mandatory for applicable aircraft registered in the United Kingdom.
No person may operate an aircraft to which an AD applies except in accordance with the requirements of that AD unless otherwise agreed
with the Authority of the State of Registry.
Applicability: Models RB211 Trent 875-17, 877-17, 884-17, 884B-17, 892-17, 892B-17, 895-17 engines
installed on Boeing 777 aeroplanes.
Reason: This Airworthiness Directive has been raised following an incident involving uncontained multiple IP
turbine blade release on a Trent 700 engine. The blade release was the result of an overspeed of the IP turbine
rotor that was initiated by an internal fire in the HP/IP bearing chamber. Post incident analysis and investigation
has established that blockage of the HP/IP turbine bearing vent pipe due to oil coking was a significant factor in
the failure sequence. The Trent 800 has a similar type design standard to that of the Trent 700.
To prevent a potentially unsafe condition developing on the Trent 800 engine fleet, this Airworthiness Directive
(AD) instructs a one off inspection of the HP/IP turbine vent tube, with repeat inspections required if a certain
carbon build-up is found. Cleaning of the vent tube is also instructed if carbon accumulation is found. This action
mitigates the risk of further events within the fleet.
Compliance/Action:
In-Service Inspection
1) Inspect and clean as necessary the HP/IP turbine oil vent tube in accordance with Section 3
Accomplishment Instructions of Rolls-Royce Alert Non Modification Service Bulletin RB211-72-AE362,
when the 05 module life exceeds the threshold life of 15,000 hours since new, or 3,000 cycles since new.
a. For 05 modules that exceed the threshold life at the time of the effective date of this AD, carry out
the action within 6 months of the effective date of the AD.
b. For 05 modules that are below the threshold life at the time of the effective date of this AD, carry
out the action within 6 months of reaching the threshold life.
2) HP/IP turbine oil vent tubes inspected and cleaned in accordance with this AD, and for which it has been
determined that an 8mm diameter flexible borescope would not pass through the internal vent tube, but a
6mm diameter borescope would pass along the full length of the internal vent tube into the bearing
chamber; carry out a repeat inspection in accordance with Section 3 Accomplishment Instructions of
Rolls-Royce Alert Non Modification Service Bulletin RB211-72-AE362, at intervals of 1500 hours or 300
cycles (whichever occurs first) since the previous inspection.
3) HP/IP turbine oil vent tubes inspected and cleaned in accordance with this AD, and for which it has been
determined that an 6mm diameter flexible borescope would not pass through the internal vent tube,
remove the engine from service within 10 cycles of the inspection.

Civil Aviation Authority DIRECTIVE
AD No: G-2004-0010
Issue Date: 8 April 2004
This AD is issued by the UK CAA acting for and on behalf of the European Aviation Safety Agency as the Primary Aviation Authority (ICAO
Annex 8 Authority of State of Design) for the affected product(s).
Approved by the European Aviation Safety Agency under approval number 2004-3674 on 7 April 2004.
In accordance with Article 9(7)(b) of the Air Navigation Order 2000 as amended the following action required by this Airworthiness Directive
(AD) is mandatory for applicable aircraft registered in the United Kingdom.
No person may operate an aircraft to which an AD applies except in accordance with the requirements of that AD unless otherwise agreed
with the Authority of the State of Registry.
Applicability: Models RB211 Trent 768-60, 772-60 and 772B-60 engines installed on Airbus A330 aeroplanes.
Reason: There have been a number of low power surges in service on Trent 700 engines. These surges
occurred with the aeroplane on the ground as take-off power was being set or during taxi. The cause of the
surges has been identified as excessive wear on the HPC casing front location feature. This causes increased
HPC tip clearances resulting in loss of surge margin. Engines affected by this problem are also at risk of failure
to respond due to surge on acceleration during descent, prior to flap selection.
Routine ground testing for adequate surge margin will assure safe in-flight operation and embodiment of the
redesigned HPC casing front location feature will remove the problem.
This AD supersedes AD G-2003-0014 by introducing the accomplishment of the engine control software to
automatically maximise HPC surge margin in descent as an Interim Action with an associated compliance date.
The requirements of this AD are otherwise unchanged from those of AD G-2003-0014.
Compliance/Action:
1) In-Service Test
Carry out a surge test in accordance with Rolls-Royce Alert Service Bulletin RB211-71-AD509 revision 3 or later
CAA approved revision, Section 3 Accomplishment Instructions before the engine exceeds 2000 cycles since
new or 1000 cycles since HP Compressor overhaul, and subsequently at intervals of not more than;
(a) 130 cycles
or
(b) 160 cycles if Rolls-Royce Alert Service Bulletin RB211-73-AE224 original issue or later CAA approved
revision, or later standard of engine control software is embodied.
Note: For the purposes of this Airworthiness Directive, testing carried out in accordance with superseded AD 005-
09-2001 or AD G-2003-0014 (Rolls-Royce Alert Service Bulletin RB211-71-AD509 revision 3, revision 2, revision
1 or original issue) is deemed to be valid.
2) Interim Action
Fit an EEC incorporating a revised standard of engine control software as specified in Rolls-Royce Alert Service
Bulletin RB211-73-AE224 original issue or later CAA approved revision, or later standard of engine control
software, before 1 July 2005.
3) Terminating Action
Fit redesigned HP compressor stage 1 casing and intermediate case outer location ring in accordance with Rolls-
Royce Service Bulletin RB211-72-D574 original issue or later CAA approved revision, Section 3 Accomplishment
Instructions within 4500 cycles of the Effective Date of this Airworthiness Directive or before 30 June 2012
whichever is the sooner. Incorporation of this modification removes the requirement to carry out 1) In-Service
Test and 2) Interim Action and therefore constitutes the terminating action for this Airworthiness Directive.

Civil Aviation Authority DIRECTIVE
AD No: G-2004-0016
Issue Date: 29 June 2004
This AD is issued by the UK CAA acting for and on behalf of the European Aviation Safety Agency as the Primary Aviation Authority (ICAO
Annex 8 Authority of State of Design) for the affected product(s).
Approved by the European Aviation Safety Agency under approval number on 2004-6754 28 June 2004.
In accordance with Article 9(7)(b) of the Air Navigation Order 2000 as amended the following action required by this Airworthiness Directive
(AD) is mandatory for applicable aircraft registered in the United Kingdom.
No person may operate an aircraft to which an AD applies except in accordance with the requirements of that AD unless otherwise agreed
with the Authority of the State of Registry.
Applicability: Models RB211 Trent 768-60, 772-60, 772B-60 engines installed on Airbus A330 aeroplanes.
Reason: This Airworthiness Directive has been raised following an incident involving uncontained multiple IP
turbine blade release on a Trent 700 engine. The blade release was the result of an overspeed of the IP turbine
rotor that was initiated by an internal fire in the HP/IP bearing chamber. Post incident analysis and investigation
has established that blockage of the HP/IP turbine bearing oil vent tube due to oil coking is a significant factor in
the failure sequence.
G-2003-0016 instructed a one-off inspection/cleaning of the HP/IP turbine bearing vent tube.
This Airworthiness Directive supersedes Airworthiness Directive G-2003-0016 by extending the requirements as
follows;
• Repetitive inspections/cleaning of the HP/IP turbine bearing internal oil vent tube are introduced at
intervals that are dependent on the level of carbon build-up found.
• The threshold life is revised following evidence from the initial inspections that have shown that overhaul
does not always remove all carbon from the vent pipe. The threshold life is therefore now applicable
“since new” only, and not “since last overhaul”.
• The threshold life is also revised by the addition of a cyclic limit following evidence from the initial
inspection.
• As a result of the latter two points above, a further three months compliance time is included to cover
those engines which, due to overhaul or high cyclic usage, now exceed the revised threshold life of this
Airworthiness Directive.
Compliance/Action:
1) Carry out the Action detailed below for engines on which the 05 module life exceeds the threshold life of
10,000 hours or 2,500 cycles since new (whichever occurs first) within 3 months of reaching the
threshold life. For engines already exceeding the threshold life, carry out the Action detailed below within
3 months of the Effective Date of this Airworthiness Directive.
2) HP/IP turbine bearing internal oil vent tubes inspected/cleaned in accordance with this Airworthiness
Directive, for which no evidence of carbon build up of visible thickness exists or for which an internal
clearance of 8mm diameter for the full length of the tube is established, must be re-inspected/cleaned in
accordance with the Action detailed below at repeat intervals of 6,400 hours or 1,600 cycles (whichever
occurs first).
3) HP/IP turbine bearing internal oil vent tubes inspected/cleaned in accordance with this Airworthiness
Directive which do not meet the acceptance criteria in (2), for which an internal clearance of 6mm
diameter for the full length of the tube is established, must be re-inspected/cleaned in accordance with
the Action detailed below at repeat intervals of 1,600 hours or 400 cycles (whichever occurs first).
4) HP/IP turbine bearing internal oil vent tubes inspected/cleaned in accordance with this Airworthiness
Directive, for which an internal clearance of less than 6mm diameter is established, remove the engine
from service within 10 cycles of the inspection.
Note: For the purposes of compliance with this Airworthiness Directive, inspection/cleaning carried out in
accordance with superseded Airworthiness Directive G-2003-0016 (Rolls-Royce Alert Service Bulletin RB211-72-
AE302 original issue) is deemed to be valid.
Action: Inspect and clean (as necessary) the HP/IP turbine bearing internal oil vent tube in accordance with
Section 3 Accomplishment Instructions of Rolls-Royce Alert Non Modification Service Bulletin RB211-72- AE302
rev 1 (or later approved issue).

Issue Date: 24 September 2003
This AD is issued by the UK CAA as the Primary Aviation Authority (ICAO Annex 8 Authority of State of Design) for the affected product(s).
In accordance with Article 9(7)(b) of the Air Navigation Order 2000 as amended the following action required by this Airworthiness Directive
(AD) is mandatory for applicable aircraft registered in the United Kingdom.
No person may operate an aircraft to which an AD applies except in accordance with the requirements of that AD unless otherwise agreed
with the Authority of the State of Registry.
Applicability: Pre-made 3/8” bore fuel hoses supplied by Lindstrand Balloons Ltd that have the following batch
numbers FHL 38381, FH40579, FHL42036 and FHL43263 and fitted on hot air balloons.
Reason: Recently, two batches of defective hoses used in burner and refuelling hose applications were

Compliance/Action: Before further flight after the effective date of this AD, inspect for defective burner fuel
supply and refuelling hoses in accordance with Lindstrand Balloons Service Bulletins No. 7 and No. 8.

Civil Aviation Authority DIRECTIVE
AD No: G-2004-0019
Issue Date: 27 July 2004
This AD is issued by the UK CAA acting for and on behalf of the European Aviation Safety Agency as the Primary Aviation Authority (ICAO
Annex 8 Authority of State of Design) for the affected product(s).
Approved by the European Aviation Safety Agency under approval number 2004-7852 on 22 July 2004.
In accordance with Article 9(7)(b) of the Air Navigation Order 2000 as amended the following action required by this Airworthiness Directive
(AD) is mandatory for applicable aircraft registered in the United Kingdom.
No person may operate an aircraft to which an AD applies except in accordance with the requirements of that AD unless otherwise agreed
with the Authority of the State of Registry.
Applicability: Eurocopter Model AS350 and AS355 helicopters, certificated in any category that have been
modified in accordance with MAG(E) modification 350-1521, 350-1680 or 350-1707. Installation of Camera
platform.
Reason: MAG(E) have been made aware of failures of an old standard of the camera platform hold down hook
(p/n 350-1521-109). Failure of the hook could result in inadequate retention of the platform and camera that might
hazard the aircraft. A new standard of hook (p/n 350-1521-139) replaces the defective item.
The design investigation has also highlighted a deficiency in the way that the hold down hook interfaces with the
aircraft and platform, this is resolved by re-working the platform beam.
Compliance/Action: Within three months after the effective date of this Airworthiness Directive (AD), accomplish
the following tasks in accordance with paragraph a and b of this AD:
(a) Inspect the camera platform hold down hook to determine the standard of hook installed, in accordance with
paragraph 2 of MAG(E) Service Bulletin SB-A25-002, Issue 1, dated 20 May 2004 or later EASA approved
revision. If a part number 350-1521-109 hook is found to be installed, replace the -109 hook with a Part
Number 350-1521-139 hook in accordance with MAG(E) Service Bulletin SB-A25-002, Issue 1 or later EASA
approved revision.
(b) Modify the Mounting Arm in accordance with MAG(E) Service Bulletin SB-A25-002, Issue 1 or later EASA
approved revision.
