Airworthiness Directive · Amendment 39-13149 · Dassault Model Mystere-Falcon 50 Series Airplanes
Dassault Model Mystere-Falcon 50 Series Airplanes
Model Mystere-Falcon 50 series airplanes having serial numbers 2 through 329 inclusive, certificated in any category.
This amendment adopts a new airworthiness directive (AD) that is applicable to certain Dassault Model Mystere-Falcon 50 series airplanes. This action requires a detailed inspection for clearance and chafing of the entire length of the hydraulic lines located within the engine pylons, and follow-on/corrective actions, as applicable. This action also requires a revision of the maintenance manual to ensure that the clamps that hold the hydraulic lines are in their initial position during normal maintenance, and that the position is identified with a yellow paint line. This action is necessary to prevent chafing and consequent leakage of the hydraulic lines located within the No. 1 and No. 3 engine pylons, which can result in failure of the No. 1 and No. 2 hydraulic systems, and consequent reduced controllability 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.
