Airworthiness Directive · Amendment 39-11552 · Bombardier Model CL-600-2B19 (Regional Jet Series 100) Series Airplanes
Bombardier Model CL-600-2B19 (Regional Jet Series 100) Series Airplanes
All Model CL-600-2B19 (Regional Jet Series 100) series airplanes, certificated in any category.
This amendment adopts a new airworthiness directive (AD), applicable to all Bombardier Model CL-600-2B19 (Regional Jet Series 100) series airplanes, that requires revising the Airplane Flight Manual to provide the flightcrew with modified procedures and limitations for operating in icing conditions. This amendment is prompted by an accident report indicating that possible accretion of ice on the wings of the airplane, due to the wing anti-ice system not being activated by the flightcrew, could have contributed to the source of the accident. The actions specified by this AD are intended to prevent undetected accretion of ice on the wings, which could result in reduced controllability of the airplane during normal icing conditions.
(a) Within 10 days after the effective date of this AD: Revise the FAA-approved Canadair Regional Jet Airplane Flight Manual (AFM) by inserting a copy of the pages specified in paragraphs (a)(1), (a)(2), and (a)(3) of this AD into the AFM.
(1) Revise the Limitations Section to include pages 2 and 3 of Canadair Regional Jet Temporary Revision (TR) RJ/61-2, dated October 30, 1998.
(2) Revise the Emergency Procedures Section to include pages 4 through 6 inclusive of Canadair Regional Jet TR RJ/61-2, dated October 30, 1998.
(3) Revise the Normal Procedures Section to include pages 7 through 27 inclusive of Canadair Regional Jet TR RJ/61-2, dated October 30, 1998.
The aircraft, engines and makers this AD names, by the model designations in its text. A model listed here may still be outside the AD's serial ranges.
