Airworthiness Directive · Amendment 39-15959 · Fuselage
Dassault Model Falcon 2000EX Airplanes
This AD applies to Dassault Model Falcon 2000EX airplanes, certificated in any category, serial numbers 102 through 124 inclusive.
We are adopting a new airworthiness directive (AD) for the products listed above. This AD results from mandatory continuing airworthiness information (MCAI) originated 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, do the following actions.
(1) At the later of the times in paragraphs (f)(1)(i) and (f)(1)(ii) of this AD: Perform a detailed visual inspection to detect any sharp and unprotected edges of the web of the LH stringer 13 between frames 7 and 8, and measure the trimmed length of the web, in accordance with the Accomplishment Instructions of Dassault Mandatory Service Bulletin F2000EX-178, dated July 1, 2008.
(i) Before the accumulation of 3,750 total flight cycles, or within 74 months since the date of issuance of the original French airworthiness certificate or the date of issuance of the original French export certificate of airworthiness, whichever occurs first.
(ii) Within 6 months after the effective date of this AD.
(2) If, during the inspection and measurement required by paragraph (f)(1) of this AD, any sharp or unprotected edge is found, or if the trimmed length is 1.57 inches (40 mm) or greater, before further flight, do all applicable corrective actions, in accordance with the Accomplishment Instructions of Dassault Mandatory Service Bulletin F2000EX-178, dated July 1, 2008.
Note 1: 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.
