Airworthiness Directive · Amendment 39-13614 · Gulfstream Aerospace LP Model Galaxy and Gulfstream 200 Airplanes
Gulfstream Aerospace LP Model Galaxy and Gulfstream 200 Airplanes
All Model Galaxy and Gulfstream 200 airplanes, certificated in any category.
This amendment adopts a new airworthiness directive (AD) that is applicable to all Gulfstream Aerospace LP Model Galaxy and Gulfstream 200 airplanes. This action requires repetitive inspections of the internal and external spring sleeves of the aileron artificial feel unit (AFU) for proper lubrication, and lubrication if necessary. This action is necessary to prevent ice accumulation due to water entering the AFU, which could restrict or jam the aileron, resulting in 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.
