Airworthiness Directives; Rolls-Royce plc. RB211-535 Turbofan Engines; Correction

What this AD requires

This document makes a correction to Airworthiness Directive (AD) 2002-23-08, applicable to Rolls-Royce plc. (RR) models RB211- 535E4-37, RB211-535E4-B-37, and RB211-535E4-B-75 turbofan engines. AD 2002-23-08 was published in the Federal Register on November 29, 2002 (67 FR 71094). In the DATES section of the preamble, two dates are incorrect. This document corrects those dates. In all other respects, the original document remains the same.

Which aircraft AD 02-31395 applies to

MakesRolls-Royce Plc. Rb211-535 Turbofan

Whether AD 02-31395 actually applies to your aircraft (by serial and installed parts) and whether it’s already complied with comes from that aircraft’s records.

How AD compliance is recorded

A valid compliance record (14 CFR 43.9) states:

Method of complianceThe specific action taken (inspected, replaced, modified) and to what revision.
DateWhen the work was done.
Aircraft timeTotal time in service / tach at compliance — how recurring next-due is computed.
Signature & certificateThe A&P/IA who returned it to service, with certificate number.
Is AD 02-31395 complied with on your aircraft?

Tailplate reads a tail number’s logbooks and matches every applicable AD — including this one — to its compliance evidence, with recurring next-due dates computed.

Applicability is derived from the FAA directive corpus and is advisory, not a legal airworthiness determination. Compliance is established only from an aircraft’s actual records.
