Compliance required as indicated.

To prevent failures in service of combustion chamber air casings of Pre-Modification 553 standard, which failures have been attributed to fatigue cracks originating around suspension pin soleplates, accomplish the following:

(1) Install strengthened air casing incorporating Rolls-Royce Modification 553 standards; or

(2) Install air casing straps using:

(i) Mod. 612 standards which modification sets forth a positive location for antitear straps for Pre-Mod 553 air casings; or

(ii) Mod. 1021 standards which modification covers Pre-Mod. 553 air casings which have been modified to Mod. 855 standards providing an additional boss for burner cleaning.

(b) Remove air casings of Pre-Mod. 97 standard at the next engine overhaul and replace with air casings conforming to the standards set forth in (a).

(Rolls-Royce Notice to Operators Dart Engines No. 99 Issue 3 dated June 29, 1962, covers the same subject.)
