The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) has proposed a new airworthiness directive for some Rolls-Royce Deutschland BR700 model turbofan engines due to a manufacturing issue that escaped previous detection. This issue affects the disks in the high-pressure turbine of certain engines, which may fail and cause unsafe conditions if not addressed. The directive would mandate the removal and replacement of the affected disks before they reach a specific number of flight cycles or during the next maintenance visit. This proposed action aims to prevent potential damage and maintain aviation safety.

The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) has issued a new airworthiness directive for certain Rolls-Royce Deutschland Model Trent XWB-97 engines. This action is due to damage reports concerning the main fuel hose assembly, which may lead to in-flight shutdowns and potential engine fires. To address these concerns, the directive mandates inspections and possible replacements of the damaged components. Public comments on this rule are invited until March 17, 2025, although the rule is set to take effect on February 18, 2025.

The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) has issued a new rule that updates Airworthiness Directive 2019-05-02 for Rolls-Royce Deutschland Ltd & Co KG engines. This new directive addresses a safety issue caused by cracks in the drains mast area, which could lead to engine fires and airplane damage. The updated rule requires modifications to the engine with an improved drains mast and support bracket, within 24 months of the effective date, to prevent these unsafe conditions. Although there are no compliance costs since these engines aren't registered in the U.S., the FAA encourages public comments by May 1, 2025, and provides contact information for further details.

The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) has issued a new Airworthiness Directive (AD) that affects certain Rolls-Royce Deutschland Ltd & Co KG Model Trent 1000 engines. This rule replaces a previous AD and requires updates to the airworthiness limitation section of an aircraft's maintenance program to prevent engine failures. The change, prompted by updates in the manufacturer's time limits manual, aims to address safety concerns by introducing stricter maintenance tasks and limits. This directive becomes effective on January 6, 2025, and is based on cooperation and standards with the European Union Aviation Safety Agency (EASA).

The FAA has proposed a rule to replace an existing Airworthiness Directive (AD) for Rolls-Royce Deutschland engines (Model Trent7000-72 and Trent7000-72C). This proposal aims to update engine maintenance or inspection programs to include new, stricter tasks and limitations to prevent engine failure. The rule is based on updated guidelines from the European Union Aviation Safety Agency (EASA) and comments are invited by January 16, 2025. The goal is to address potential safety issues, ensuring the reliable operation of these engines on planes.

The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) is updating a previous directive concerning Rolls-Royce Deutschland Model Trent 1000 engines to include more restrictive maintenance tasks and limits for certain parts. This action is in response to revised guidelines from the European Union Aviation Safety Agency (EASA), which aim to prevent engine failures that could lead to the loss of airplane control. The new rule goes into effect on January 6, 2025, and affects two engines registered in the U.S. with specific requirements for adjusting the maintenance programs within 30 days. The rule allows for necessary safety adjustments while not significantly impacting small entities or intrastate aviation.
