Is AD 2002-25-06 a recurring Airworthiness Directive?

Yes — AD 2002-25-06 requires a repetitive inspection. Next-due depends on the aircraft's time in service.

Which aircraft does AD 2002-25-06 apply to?

AD 2002-25-06 applies to Rolls-Royce — models Olympus 593, Olympus. Serial/part conditions may narrow it to specific aircraft.

What this AD requires

This amendment adopts a new airworthiness directive (AD) that is applicable to Rolls-Royce Limited, Aero Division-Bristol, S.N.E.C.M.A. (RR) Olympus 593 Mk. 610-14-28 turbojet engines, installed in BAe/SNIAS Concorde Type 1 airplanes that have been modified in accordance with Airbus Concorde service bulletins No.'s SST 57-078, SST 57-079, SST 57-080, and SST 57-082. This action requires initial and repetitive engine fuel filter inspections and fuel sample analysis. This amendment is prompted by a report of fuel tank liner materials found in and partially through an engine fuel filter. The actions specified in this AD are intended to prevent contamination of any or all of the four airplane engine fuel control units, causing power loss or one or more engines to shutdown.

Repetitive inspection. Re-inspect. The next-due date/hours depend on this aircraft’s time in service — a records report computes it from the logbooks.

MakesRolls-Royce

ModelsOlympus 593, Olympus

Applies to the engine fuel control units of the four RR Olympus 593 engines on the airplane; requires initial and repetitive engine fuel filter inspections and fuel sample analysis per RR Olympus 593 MSB OL.593-73-9093-109 Rev 1, dated November 23, 2001, to prevent contamination-related power loss/shutdown.

Whether AD 2002-25-06 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 compliance — The specific action taken (inspected, replaced, modified) and to what revision.

Date — When the work was done.

Aircraft time — Total time in service / tach at compliance — how recurring next-due is computed.

Signature & certificate — The A&P/IA who returned it to service, with certificate number.

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.
