Airworthiness Directive · Amendment 39-16796 · Nacelles/pylons
Empresa Brasileira de Aeronautica S.A. (EMBRAER) Model ERJ 190 Airplanes
This AD applies to all Empresa Brasileira de Aeronautica S.A. (EMBRAER) Model ERJ 190-100 STD, -100 LR, -100 ECJ, and -100 IGW airplanes; and Model ERJ 190-200 STD, -200 LR, and -200 IGW airplanes; 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) 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:
You are responsible for having the actions required by this AD performed within the compliance times specified, unless the actions have already been done.
For Model ERJ 190-100 STD, -100 LR, -100 IGW; and ERJ 190-200 STD, -200 LR, and -200 IGW airplanes: Within 3,000 flight hours after the effective date of this AD, replace the shear pins having part number (P/N) 190-15178-003 and P/N 190-15181-003 in the rear outboard and inboard shear pin assembly in the right- and left-hand pylons, with new shear pins having P/N 190-15178-005 and P/N 190-15181-005, respectively, in accordance with the Accomplishment Instructions of EMBRAER Service Bulletin 190-54-0010, dated May 19, 2010.
(h) For Model ERJ 190-100 ECJ airplanes: Within 3,000 flight hours or within 12 months after the effective date of this AD, whichever occurs first, replace the shear pins having P/N 190-15178-003 and P/N 190-15181-003, in the rear outboard and inboard shear pin assembly in the right- and left-hand pylons, with new shear pins having P/N 190-15178-005 and P/N 190-15181-005, respectively, in accordance with the Accomplishment Instructions of EMBRAER Service Bulletin 190LIN-54-0001, dated June 21, 2010.
Note 1: This AD differs from the MCAI and/or service information as follows: The MCAI allows credit for previous installation of internal shear pins in accordance with EMBRAER 190 Aircraft Maintenance Manual Task 54-50-00-400, Revision 19, dated July 15, 2010. This AD does not allow credit for this task; however, under the provisions of paragraph (i) of this AD, we will consider requests for an alternative method of compliance.
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.
