EASA grounds R-R Tay for checks

13 hours ago

Rolls-Royce Tay 611-8 engines, mostly installed on Gulfstream IV series business jets, are grounded subject to a European Aviation Safety Agency emergency airworthiness directive until a modification solution is found.

EASA says: "These engines are known to be installed on, but not limited to, Gulfstream Aerospace G-IV, GIV-SP and GIV-X aeroplanes."
Fokker 70s and Fokker 100s are also Tay-engined, but a different variant.

'Only' relates to 14 specific Tay 611 engines used on the G4 variants

Bit of an exagerated subject title...
