Airworthiness Directive · Amendment 39-13960 · Pacific Aerospace Corporation, Ltd. Model 750XL Airplanes
Pacific Aerospace Corporation, Ltd. Model 750XL Airplanes
This AD affects Model 750XL airplanes, all serial numbers that are certificated in any category.
The FAA adopts a new airworthiness directive (AD) for all Pacific Aerospace Corporation, Ltd. (Pacific Aerospace) Model 750XL airplanes. This AD requires you to replace any type TLP-D or TLED rivets on the aileron pushrod ends and elevator control pushrod ends. This AD results from mandatory continuing airworthiness information (MCAI) issued by the airworthiness authority for New Zealand. We are issuing this AD to replace the above identified rivets on the aileron pushrod ends and elevator control pushrod ends, which, if not replaced, could result in loose mechanical elements in the control systems. This could lead to control anomalies and loss of airplane control.
To address this problem, you must do the following:
| Actions | Compliance | Procedures |
|---|---|---|
| Replace any type TLP-D or TLED rivets on the aileron pushrod ends and elevator control pushrod ends with a new Cherry Max 3213-4-2 or 3243-4-2 (oversize nominal 1/8 inch) rivet | With 50 hours time-in-service (TIS) after March 21, 2005 (the effective date of this AD), unless already done | Follow the ACCOMPLISHMENT INSTRUCTIONS in Pacific Aerospace Corporation Mandatory Service Bulletin No. PACSB/XL/007, dated June 22, 2004. |
| (2) Do not install: | ||
| (i) Any type TLP-D or TLED rivets on the aileron pushrod ends and elevator control pushrod ends; or | As of March 21, 2005 (the effective date of this AD) | Not Applicable. |
| (ii) Any aileron pushrods or elevator control pushrods with type TLP-D or TLED rivets on the ends. |
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.
