ATA System: 3100

SUBJECT: INDICATING/RECORDING SYSTEMS - Airplane Information Management System -

Aero Engine Data Base Software Upgrade

BOEING RECOMMENDS THAT EACH OPERATOR EXAMINE THIS SERVICE BULLETIN IMMEDIATELY.

CONCURRENT REQUIREMENTS

Refer to Paragraph 1.B., Concurrent Requirements.

BACKGROUND

This service bulletin gives instructions to install the Aero-Engine Database (AEDB) software upgrade in the

Airplane Information Management System (AIMS) hardware. The revised AEDB is required to be installed on

777 aircraft prior or concurrent with incorporation of the redesigned IP8 bleed screen through Boeing service

bulletin 777-75A0002. For airplanes with the Trent 800 engine model, the AEDB software upgrade will limit the

takeoff power setting target so that it stays above the fan flutter lower keep-out zone. For airplanes with other

engine types, the AEDB software upgrade will help operators to maintain part number commonality across their

777 fleet.

Rolls Royce has identified an area of operation where the Trent 800 engine can be exposed to potential fan

flutter with certain combinations of high takeoff thrust derate and additional Assumed Temperature Method

(ATM) thrust reduction. A review of in-service data has shown that there have been no takeoffs in the fan flutter

sensitive region. However, the installation of the redesigned IP8 bleed exhaust screens through Boeing service

bulletin 777-75A0002 may increase the exposure to fan flutter.

The intent of this change is to increase the Minimum Power Setting Parameter (min PSP) to prevent displaying

a takeoff target Engine Pressure Ratio (EPR) inside the region critical to fan flutter. The min PSP is a constant

that resides in the Airplane Flight Manual - Digital Performance Information (AFM-DPI) and the AEDB portion

of the Flight Management Computer (FMC). This AEDB update increases the value of the min PSP from 1.100

to 1.170.

Prior to the incorporation of Boeing service bulletin 777-75A0002, the revised AEDB provided by this service

bulletin may be used with the operating limitations and airplane performance limits given in either the current

Airplane Flight Manual (AFM) or the revised AFM.

Boeing Service Related Problem (SRP) 777-SRP-78-0052 is related to this service bulletin.

ACTION (PRR 62777-73S)

Install the AEDB software in the AIMS hardware.

E. Compliance

Boeing recommends that the change given in this service bulletin be done within three years after the

original issue date of this service bulletin.

F. Approval

This service bulletin was examined by the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA). The changes specified

in this service bulletin comply with the applicable regulations and are FAA approved, as well as European

Aviation Safety Agency (EASA)/Joint Aviation Authorities (JAA) approved for all EASA/JAA approved

airplanes listed in the service bulletin effectivity. This service bulletin and its approval were based on

the airplane in its original Boeing delivery configuration or as modified by other approved Boeing

changes.

If an airplane has a non-Boeing modification or repair that affects a component or system also affected

by this service bulletin, the operator is responsible for obtaining appropriate regulatory agency approval

before incorporating this service bulletin.

G. Manpower

The table below shows an estimate of the task hours necessary to do this change for each airplane.

This estimate is for direct labor only, done by an experienced crew. Adjust the estimate with operator

task hour data if necessary. The estimate does not include lost time. These are some examples of lost

time:

• Time to adjust to the workplace

• Time to schedule the work

• Time to inspect the work
