Is AD 2003-07-11 a recurring Airworthiness Directive?

Yes — AD 2003-07-11 requires a repetitive inspection. Next-due depends on the aircraft's time in service.

Which aircraft does AD 2003-07-11 apply to?

AD 2003-07-11 applies to Rolls-Royce — models BR700-710A1-10, BR700-710A2-20, BR700. Serial/part conditions may narrow it to specific aircraft.

Airworthiness Directives; Rolls-Royce Deutschland Ltd & Co KG Models BR700-710A1-10 and BR700-710A2-20 Turbofan Engines

What this AD requires

This amendment supersedes an existing airworthiness directive (AD), that is applicable to Rolls-Royce Deutschland Ltd & Co KG (RRD) (formerly Rolls-Royce Deutschland GmbH, formerly BMW Rolls-Royce GmbH) models BR700-710A1-10 turbofan engines with fan disc part numbers (P/ Ns) BRR18803, BRR19248, or BRR20791 installed, and BR700-710A2-20 turbofan engines with fan discs P/Ns BRR19248 or BRR20791 installed. That AD currently requires initial and repetitive inspections of these fan discs for cracks, and if necessary replacement with serviceable parts. This amendment requires the same inspections but with longer intervals between repetitive inspections under certain conditions, and requires removal of any dry film lubricant coating from the front face of the fan disc for visual inspections. This amendment is prompted by reevaluation by RRD of results from a fleet-wide inspection campaign, reevaluation of existing repetitive inspection interval requirements, and by a revised service bulletin (SB) that introduces improved inspection procedures. The actions specified by this AD are intended to detect cracks in the fan disc, that could result in an uncontained engine failure and damage to the airplane.

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.

Fan disc inspection/replacement on BR700-710A1-10 and BR700-710A2-20 turbofan engines; inspection interval depends on which fan disc P/N is installed (BRR18803/BRR19248, all serials, vs BRR20791, where the serial-number limits above apply).

Whether AD 2003-07-11 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.

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.
