Airworthiness Directive · Amendment 39-16033 · Auto flight
Construcciones Aeronauticas, S.A. (CASA), Model C-212-CB, C-212-CC, C-212-CD, and C-212-CE Airplanes
This AD applies to CASA Model C-212-CB, C-212-CC, C-212-CD and C-212-CE airplanes, all serial numbers; certificated in any category; on which autopilot servo-drive actuators (servo-motors) having part number (P/N) 4006719-904 or 4006719-913 are installed.
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) Within 2 months after the effective date of this AD: Identify affected servo-motors having P/N 4006719-904 and P/N 4006719-913 and modify each unit or replace with a modified unit, in accordance with the instructions of EADS-CASA Service Bulletin SB-212-22-16, dated March 13, 2006.
(2) As of the effective date of this AD, no person may install, on any airplane, a servo-motor having P/N 4006719-904 or 4006719-913, and any affected serial number identified in Honeywell Alert Service Bulletin 4006719-22-A0016, Revision 001, dated November 1, 2004 (referenced in EADS-CASA Service Bulletin SB-212-22-16, dated March 13, 2006, as the source of service information for accomplishing the modification), unless it has been modified in accordance with paragraph (f)(1) of this AD.
Note 1: The 8 digit serial number specified in Honeywell Alert Service Bulletin 4006719-22-A0016, Revision 001, dated November 1, 2004, is a combination date code and serial number. The format is as follows: YYMMXXXX—YY is the year; MM is the month, and XXXX is a sequential manufacturing serial number (e.g., a unit with number 0111XXXX was manufactured in November 2001).
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.
