the 884-17 rating up to 12,000ft, then increases linearly to the 892-17 maximum continuous thrust
at 25,000ft and above.
3. Flat rated ISA + 22.8oC between -2000 feet and 2000 feet varying linearly to ISA + 15oC at 5000
feet ISA + 15oC above 5000 feet.

then varying linearly to ISA + 4oC at 4550 feet, then varying
linearly to ISA + 8oC at 6550 feet, then varying linearly to ISA
+ 15oC at 8000 feet. ISA + 15oC above 8000 feet.
5. The 892B-17 provides higher take-off thrust than the 892-17
at altitudes between 2000 feet and 8000 feet. The thrust
increase varies with altitude, Mach number and ambient temperature and is limited to a maximum of 5.2%.

CERTIFICATION BASIS

FAR 33 effective February 1, 1965, as amended by FAR 33-1 through 33-15. Pursuant to FAR
21.29(a)(1)(ii), the Type Certificate was issued in validation of the British Civil Aviation
Authority Certification Standards JAR-E Change 8 plus OP E/91/1 which were found to provide a
level of safety equivalent to that provided by FAR 33, Amendment 33-15.

IMPORT REQUIREMENTS

To be considered eligible for installation on United States-registered aircraft, each engine to be

exported to the United States shall be accompanied by a certificate of airworthiness for export, or
certifying statement endorsed by the exporting civil airworthiness authority, which contains the
following language:
1.

This engine conforms to its United States type design (Type Certificate Number E00050EN)
and is in a condition for safe operation.

2.

This engine has been subjected by the manufacturer to a final operational check and is in a
proper state of airworthiness.

Reference FAR Section 21.500, which provides for the airworthiness acceptance of aircraft
engines manufactured outside of the United States for which a U.S. type certificate has been
issued.
Additional guidance is contained in FAA Advisory Circular 21-23, "Airworthiness Certification
of Civil Aircraft, Engines, Propellers, and Related Products Imported into the United States."

MAXIMUM PERMISSIBLE COMPRESSOR AIR BLEEDS

NOTE 5.
Air delivery for aircraft services, excluding powerplant anti-icing.
This air is automatically scheduled from the engine IP stage 8 and HP stage 6 compressor bleed ports via two valves in the aircraft
ducting which select the appropriate supply in response to signals sensing the HP compressor delivery pressure (P30), IP delivery
pressure (P25), altitude and corrected HP compressor speed. The switchover from the HP to the IP compressor delivery bleed port
occurs whenever the following conditions are met:
1. P25 at the IPS check value is greater than 44 psig + 5 up to 22,000 feet.
2. Above 22,000 feet there are two bleed switchover levels, both varying as a function of altitude and corrected HP compressor
speed. The upper and lower switch points vary linearly from 37.7 and 32.5 psig at 30,000 feet to 32.5 and 21 psig at 43,000 feet.
Otherwise bleed air is extracted from the HP bleed port.
Maximum HP6 bleed (% gas generator compressor flow); This bleed decreases linearly
between the values listed below for the 957oC turbine entry temperature (TET) (1192oC
abnormal operation) and switchover points
1. Normal Operation
i. Low idle and up to 957oC TET
ii At switchover point
2. Abnormal (One engine operation)
i. Low idle and up to 1192oC TET

The RB211 Trent 800 series engines have been approved to operate with certain faults present in the control
system, based on satisfaction of FAR 33 requirements and appropriate FAR 25 control system reliability
requirements. Criteria pertaining to the dispatch and maintenance requirements for the engine control system are
specified in Rolls-Royce plc report DNS 14049.
The airframe manufacturers may use different nomenclature in adapting these fault categories to the aircraft
maintenance and display systems; however, the maximum operating intervals are restricted as shown above.

These engines are approved for use with Boeing Thrust Reverser Part Number 315W5000-1/-2.

NOTE 19.

The take-off rating and its associated operating limitations may be used for up to 10 minutes in the event of
engine out contingency, but their use is otherwise limited to not more than 5 minutes.
