Is AD 03-9017 a recurring Airworthiness Directive?

Yes — AD 03-9017 requires a repetitive inspection. Next-due depends on the aircraft's time in service.

Which aircraft does AD 03-9017 apply to?

AD 03-9017 applies to Rolls-Royce Deutschland — models Tay 650-15, Tay 650. Serial/part conditions may narrow it to specific aircraft.

Airworthiness Directives; Rolls-Royce Deutschland Ltd. & Co KG, Model Tay 650-15 Turbofan Engines

What this AD requires

The FAA is adopting a new airworthiness directive (AD) for certain serial numbers (SNs) of Rolls-Royce Deutschland Ltd. & Co KG (RRD) Model Tay 650-15 turbofan engines. This action requires initial and repetitive visual inspections of low pressure (LP) turbine stage 2 rotor discs and LP turbine stage 3 rotor discs on certain SNs of engines, for corrosion. This AD is prompted by reports of excessive corrosion found during disc inspection. The actions specified in this AD are intended to prevent uncontained LP turbine stage 2 rotor disc or LP turbine stage 3 rotor disc failure due to excessive corrosion, 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.

Part-conditional — JR32319, JR32320A.

Applies only to engines with LP turbine stage 2 rotor discs P/N JR32319 and LP turbine stage 3 rotor discs P/N JR32320A bearing specific serial numbers listed in AD Table 1 (discrete SN pairs, not a contiguous range); installed on, but not limited to, Fokker F.28 Mark 0100 airplanes

Whether AD 03-9017 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.

Is AD 03-9017 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.
