Plain English Summary

3/10 complexity

This directive mandates that owners/operators of aircraft with Turbomeca Artouste III B, B1, BF and BF1 engines carry out Modification TU 153 as detailed in Turbomeca Service Bulletin Artouste 80-218-0083, to be completed before 31 December 1987. It responds to reports of partial fuel shutoff‑valve closure causing engine power loss.

Operators must arrange and fund the work and use qualified maintenance organisations; the AD sets the requirement and deadline but relies on the service bulletin for technical implementation.
