## Abstract

This amendment adopts a new airworthiness directive (AD) that is applicable to Rolls-Royce Deutschland Ltd. & Co KG (RRD), Model Tay 620-15 and 650-15 turbofan engines. This action requires initial and repetitive inspections of certain low pressure (LP) fuel tubes. This amendment is prompted by a dual-engine flameout. The actions specified in this AD are intended to prevent a dual-engine flameout due to fuel exhaustion, which could lead to forced landing and possible damage to the airplane.
