FAA Revises Airworthiness Directive for Rolls-Royce Engines Due to Water Contamination Issues

The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) is revising an airworthiness directive (AD) for Rolls-Royce Deutschland Ltd. & Co. KG (RRD) Model RB211-Trent 875-17, 877-17, 884-17, 884B-17, 892-17, 892B-17, and 895-17 engines due to reports of single-engine events caused by water contamination, leading to corrosion on the fuel pump and loss of engine thrust. The FAA requires replacing all affected fuel pumps within a specified compliance time.
