What to do
Operators must replace any affected fuel pump assembly with a serviceable part before the next flight after 15 October 2019. From the effective date, installation of any affected fuel pump assembly on any engine is prohibited. Compliance must follow the instructions provided in the BRP-Rotax Alert Service Bulletin ASB-912 i-011 / ASB-915 i A-008.
Summary
EASA Airworthiness Directive 2019-0253-E is an emergency directive addressing the replacement of fuel pump assemblies in BRP-Rotax GmbH & Co KG Rotax 912 iSc2 Sport, 912 iSc3 Sport, and 915 iSc3 A engines. These engines are commonly installed on various general aviation aircraft either by the manufacturer or through Supplemental Type Certificates. The directive targets specific fuel pump assemblies with part numbers 889696 and 889698 within certain serial number ranges due to manufacturing deviations.
What changed
This directive supersedes the previous Emergency AD 2019-0055-E and mandates the replacement of all affected fuel pump assemblies identified by specific part and serial numbers. It prohibits the installation or reinstallation of these affected parts on any engine. The directive removes the prior inspection requirement and instead requires immediate replacement before the next flight.
Why it matters
This directive is critical for aviation professionals because the affected fuel pump assemblies may malfunction, leading to engine in-flight shutdown and potential forced landings. Operators, maintenance organizations, and compliance teams must ensure affected engines are promptly inspected and corrected to maintain airworthiness and safety. Non-compliance could result in operational restrictions and increased safety risks.
