AFM Change - Operational Limitations

Federal Register Volume 83, Number 81 (April 26, 2018) Final Rule Airworthiness Directive 2018-09-05 addresses Boeing 787-8 and 787-9 airplanes powered by Rolls-Royce Trent 1000-A2, AE2, C2, CE2, D2, E2, G2, H2, J2, K2, and L2 turbofan engines. This directive mandates revising the airplane flight manual (AFM) to impose limitations on extended operations (ETOPS) to reduce the risk of intermediate pressure compressor blade failures during high thrust settings after an engine failure. The AD aims to enhance flight safety by preventing potential dual engine failures during ETOPS diversions.

Apr 17, 2018

CANCELLED AND REPLACED BY FAA AD 2018-09-05

FAA Airworthiness Directive 2018-08-03 is a final rule addressing Boeing 787-8 and 787-9 airplanes powered by Rolls-Royce Trent 1000 Package C turbofan engines. It requires revising the airplane flight manual to limit extended operations (ETOPS) due to a risk of engine failure from prolonged high thrust operation on the remaining engine after an engine failure. This directive aims to prevent unrecoverable thrust loss that could lead to forced landings.
