Airworthiness Directive · Amendment 39-13912 · Eagle Aircraft (Malaysia) Sdn. Bhd. Model Eagle 150B Airplanes
Eagle Aircraft (Malaysia) Sdn. Bhd. Model Eagle 150B Airplanes
This AD affects Model Eagle 150B airplane, serial numbers 016 through 044, M1001 through M1003, and M1005, that are certificated in any category.
The FAA adopts a new airworthiness directive (AD) for all Eagle Aircraft (Malaysia) Sdn. Bhd. Model Eagle 150B airplanes. This AD requires you to inspect the port and starboard undercarriage attach bracket for unwelded areas and replace the attach bracket if unwelded areas are found. This AD results from mandatory continuing airworthiness information (MCAI) issued by the airworthiness authority for Malaysia. We are issuing this AD to detect and correct inadequate welding of the undercarriage, which could result in cracks. This failure could lead to loss of control of the airplane.
To address this problem, you must do the following:
| Actions | Compliance | Procedures |
|---|---|---|
| (1) Inspect the port and starboard undercarriage attach bracket for unwelded areas. | Within 50 hours time-in-service after January 31, 2005 (the effective date of this AD). | Follow Eagle Aircraft Alert Service Bulletin SB 1123, dated August 8, 2004. |
| (2) If unwelded areas are found: | ||
| (i) Contact the manufacturer for replacement parts at mailing address Eagle Aircraft, P.O. Box 1028, Pejabat Pos Besar, Melaka, Malaysia 75150; telephone: (606) 317-4105, facsimile: (606) 317-7213; | ||
| (ii) Install the replacement parts. | Before further flight after the inspection required by paragraph (e)(1) of this AD. | Follow Eagle Aircraft Alert Service Bulletin SB 1123, dated August 8, 2004. |
