Airworthiness Directive · Amendment 39-12615 · BAE Systems (Operations) Limited Model BAe 146 Series Airplanes and Avro 146-RJ Series Airplanes
BAE Systems (Operations) Limited Model BAe 146 Series Airplanes and Avro 146-RJ Series Airplanes
Model BA-146 series airplanes and Avro 146-RJ series airplanes, certificated in any category, having BAE Modification HCM01059A (installation of a standby generator and control system manufactured by Vickers) embodied.
This amendment adopts a new airworthiness directive (AD), applicable to certain BAE Systems (Operations) Limited Model BAe 146 series airplanes and Avro 146-RJ series airplanes, that requires replacement of the standby generator with a new, improved standby generator. This amendment is prompted by mandatory continuing airworthiness information from a foreign airworthiness authority. This action is necessary to prevent loss of the standby generator, which, in the event of an emergency involving the principal generator, could result in the loss of electrical power to the airplane. 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.
