Airworthiness Directive · Amendment 39-12366 · Bombardier Model DHC-8-311 and -315 Series Airplanes
Bombardier Model DHC-8-311 and -315 Series Airplanes
Model DHC-8-311 and -315 airplanes, certificated in any category, as listed in Bombardier Service Bulletin 8-25-306, dated May 5, 2000.
This amendment adopts a new airworthiness directive (AD), applicable to certain Bombardier Model DHC-8-311 and -315 series airplanes. This action requires replacement of the door stops on the baggage bulkhead with new, improved door stops. This action is necessary to prevent the internal door on the baggage bulkhead from jamming in the closed position, precluding access to the baggage compartment, which is critical for fire fighting during flight. This action is intended to address the identified unsafe condition.
