Airworthiness Directive · Amendment 39-14735 · Bombardier Inc. Airplanes
Bombardier Inc. Airplanes
Superseded. A later AD replaced this one: AD 2008-05-13. Comply with the one in force.
This AD applies to Bombardier Inc. CL-600-2B19 (Regional Jet Series 100), CL-600-2B19 (Regional Jet Series 440).
The models as the FAA's AD index lists them. The serial ranges, installed parts and exceptions are in the AD itself: read it at the FAA.
The FAA is superseding an existing airworthiness directive (AD) that applies to certain Bombardier Model CL-600-2B19 (Regional Jet Series 100 & 440) airplanes. The existing AD currently requires inspecting contactors 1K4XD, 2K4XD, and K4XA to determine the type of terminal base plate, and applying sealant on the terminal base plates, if necessary. This new AD revises the effective date of the existing AD. This AD results from incidents of short circuit failures of certain alternating current (AC) contactors located in the avionics bay. We are issuing this AD to prevent short circuit failures of certain AC contactors, which could result in arcing and consequent smoke or fire.
