Airworthiness Directive · Amendment 39-15102 · Engine
Diamond Aircraft Industries Model DA 42 Airplanes
This AD applies to DA 42 airplanes, serial numbers 42.004 through 42.129, 42.177, and 42.AC001, certificated in any category.
We are adopting a new airworthiness directive (AD) for the products listed above. This AD results from mandatory continuing airworthiness information (MCAI) issued by an aviation authority of another country to identify and correct an unsafe condition on an aviation product. The MCAI describes the unsafe condition as:
Unless already done, within the next 50 hours time-in-service after July 19, 2007 (the effective date of this AD) or within the next 30 days after July 19, 2007 (the effective date of this AD), whichever occurs first, install the additional steel bracket following Diamond Aircraft Industries GmbH Mandatory Service Bulletin NO. MSB-42-024/3, dated September 19, 2006, which references Diamond Aircraft Industries GmbH Work Instruction WI-MSB-42-024, Revision 2, dated September 19, 2006.
Note 1: If the above action was accomplished following the procedures described in Diamond Aircraft Industries GmbH Mandatory Service Bulletin No. MSB-42-024/2, dated August 31, 2006, you may take “unless already done” credit, and no further action per this AD is necessary.
FAA AD Differences
Note 2: This AD differs from the MCAI and/or service information as follows: No differences.
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.
