## Abstract

This amendment supersedes an existing airworthiness directive (AD) that is applicable to Rolls-Royce Deutschland Ltd. & Co KG (RRD) Model Tay 620-15 and 650-15 turbofan engines. That AD currently requires initial and repetitive inspections of certain low pressure (LP) fuel tubes. This amendment requires the same inspections and adds two engine models to the applicability. This amendment is prompted by a report that certain Tay 611-8 and 651-54 turbofan engines may use the same LP fuel tube. 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.
