What this AD requires
We are adopting a new airworthiness directive (AD) for the products listed above. This AD results from mandatory continuing airworthiness information (MCAI) issued by an aviation authority of another country to identify and correct an unsafe condition on an aviation product. The MCAI describes the unsafe condition as:
Which aircraft AD 2011-22-07 applies to
Applies only to engines that incorporate Rolls-Royce Service Bulletin (SB) RB.211-72-D133 or RB.211-72-E902. Installed on, but not limited to, Airbus A330 series and Boeing 747-400, 767, and 777 series airplanes.
Whether AD 2011-22-07 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:
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.
