Airworthiness Directive · Amendment 39-12852 · Dornier Model 328-100 and 328-300 Series Airplanes
Dornier Model 328-100 and 328-300 Series Airplanes
Model 328-100 series airplanes having serial numbers 3005 through 3119 inclusive, and Model 328-300 series airplanes having serial numbers 3105 through 3167 inclusive, excluding serial number 3164; certificated in any category.
This amendment adopts a new airworthiness directive (AD), applicable to certain Dornier Model 328-100 and 328-300 series airplanes, that requires replacement of the bolts with new bolts with wirelocking on the Support One of the rudder spring tab. This action is necessary to ensure replacement of improper bolts installed on the rudder spring tab that could back out over time, which could result in reduced structural integrity of 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.
