Compliance required as indicated unless already accomplished.

To prevent excessive wear in flame tube liners and suspension pins which may lead to flame breakout from the combustion chamber and to overheating and failure of the high pressure turbine disk rim, accomplish the following:

1. For engines which do not have Modification 1736, Part 2 incorporated accomplish the following:

(a) Inspect flame tube liners and suspension pins for wear at the primary and repetitive intervals in accordance with mandatory Rolls-Royce Dart SB No. Da72-485, dated July 2, 1984. Replace the affected parts, if wear is outside the "acceptable" limits given in paragraphs 4D(3) and 4D(4) of SB Da72-485, prior to further flight.

(b) Incorporate Modification 1736, Part 2, in accordance with Rolls-Royce SB No. Da72-423, Part 2, Revision 16, dated July 13, 1984, at the next flame tube overhaul.

2. For engines which have incorporated Modification 1736, Part 2, inspect flame tube liners and suspension pins for wear at the initial and standard intervals in accordance with Rolls-Royce Dart SB Da72-470, Revision 1, dated March 30, 1984. Replace the affected parts, if wear is outside the "acceptable" limits given in paragraphs 4D(3) and 4D(4) of SB 72-470, prior to further flight.

Aircraft may be ferried in accordance with the provisions of Federal Aviation Regulation (FARs) 21.197 and 21.199 to a base where the AD can be accomplished.

Upon request, an equivalent means of compliance with the requirements of this AD may be approved by the Manager, Engine Certification Office, Aircraft Certification Division, FAA, New England Region, 12 New England Executive Park, Burlington, Massachusetts 01803.

The manufacturer's specifications and procedures identified and described in this directive are incorporated herein and made part hereof pursuant to 5 U.S.C. 552(a)(1).
