Airworthiness Directive · Amendment 39-14451 · Pacific Aerospace Corporation Ltd. Model 750XL Airplanes
Pacific Aerospace Corporation Ltd. Model 750XL Airplanes
Superseded. A later AD replaced this one: AD 2006-13-05. Comply with the one in force.
This AD affects Model 750XL airplanes, all serial numbers, that are certificated in any category.
The FAA is adopting a new airworthiness directive (AD) for all Pacific Aerospace Corporation (PAC) Ltd. Model 750XL airplanes. This AD contains the same information as emergency AD 2005-26-53 and publishes the action in the Federal Register. This AD requires you to insert text into the Limitations Section of the Airplane Flight Manual (AFM) that reduces the maximum takeoff weight from 7,500 pounds to 7,125 pounds. This AD results from mandatory continuing airworthiness information (MCAI) issued by the airworthiness authority for New Zealand. We are issuing this AD to reduce the maximum takeoff weight that will allow wing ultimate load requirements to be met. If wing ultimate load requirements are not met, wing failure could result and subsequent loss of control of the airplane.
To address this problem, you must do the following:
| Actions | Compliance | Procedures |
|---|---|---|
| Insert the following information into the Limitations Section of the Airplane Flight Manual (AFM). You may do this by inserting a copy of this AD into the Limitations Section of the AFM. “The maximum takeoff weight is reduced from 7,500 pounds to 7,125 pounds.” | Prior to further flight after January 16, 2006 (the effective date of this AD), except for those who received emergency AD 2005-26-53, issued December 22, 2005, unless already done. Emergency AD 2005-26-53 contained the requirements of this amendment and became effective immediately upon receipt | The owner/operator holding at least a private pilot certificate as authorized by section 43.7 of the Federal Aviation Regulations (14 CFR 43.7) may do the flight manual changes requirement of this AD. Make an entry in the aircraft records showing compliance with this portion of the AD following section 43.9 of the Federal Aviation Regulations (14 CFR 43.9). |
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.
