Airworthiness Directive · Amendment 39-12126 · SOCATA-Groupe Aerospatiale Model TBM 700 Airplanes
SOCATA-Groupe Aerospatiale Model TBM 700 Airplanes
The Federal Register printed this AD without its applicability text. Read it at the link below.
This amendment adopts a new airworthiness directive (AD) that applies to certain Socata-Groupe Aerospatiale (Socata) Model TBM 700 airplanes. This AD requires you to install a thermal protection sleeve on the propeller governor flexible cable. This AD is the result of mandatory continuing airworthiness information (MCAI) issued by the airworthiness authority for France. The actions specified by this AD are intended to prevent loss of propeller control because of hardening or blocking of the control cable, which could result in the inability to control propeller pitch and inability to feather the propeller. Such failure could lead to loss of airplane control.
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.
