Airworthiness Directive · Amendment 39-12259 · Dornier Model 328-300 Series Airplanes
Dornier Model 328-300 Series Airplanes
Model 328-300 series airplanes, serial numbers 3105 to 3175 inclusive; certificated in any category.
This amendment adopts a new airworthiness directive (AD), applicable to certain Dornier Model 328-300 series airplanes, that requires replacement of the hydraulic line between the main hydraulic pump and the pulsation damper in hydraulic system "B" with a new hydraulic flex hose. This action is necessary to prevent cracking in the hydraulic line (due to a production defect), leading to heavy leakage in hydraulic system "B," which could impair the functioning of the airplane's flaps, roll spoilers, inner ground spoilers, and nose wheel steering. This action is intended to address the identified unsafe condition.
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.
