Airworthiness Directive · Amendment 39-10384 · Fokker Model F28 Mark 0100 Series Airplanes
Fokker Model F28 Mark 0100 Series Airplanes
Superseded. A later AD replaced this one: AD 2009-13-02. Comply with the one in force.
Model F28 Mark 0100 series airplanes equipped with Rolls-Royce (RR) Tay 650-15 engines, certificated in any category.
This amendment supersedes an existing airworthiness directive (AD), applicable to certain Fokker Model F28 Mark 0100 series airplanes, that currently requires a revision to the Airplane Flight Manual (AFM) to include procedures to prohibit use of reverse engine thrust power settings between idle and emergency maximum. This amendment revises the existing AFM revision requirement, and adds a new revision to the AFM to prohibit stabilized engine operation in a certain engine speed range on the ground. This amendment is prompted by issuance of mandatory continuing airworthiness information by a foreign civil airworthiness authority. The actions specified in this AD are intended to prevent stabilized engine operation in a certain engine speed range on the ground, which could result in uncontained engine fan blade failure due to high cycle fatigue cracking.
