Rolls-Royce Deutschland Ltd & Co KG Engines: FAA Issues Revised Airworthiness Directive for Certain Engine Models
The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) has superseded Airworthiness Directive (AD) 2024-25-10, which applied to Rolls-Royce Deutschland Ltd & Co KG (RRD) Model Trent XWB-97 engines, requiring one-time inspections and potential replacement of the main fuel hose assembly due to softness, compliance, and degradation issues. The revised directive now mandates repetitive inspections for additional engine models affected by the unsafe condition.
