Airworthiness Directive · Amendment 39-17860 · Power plant
Costruzioni Aeronautiche Tecnam srl Airplanes
This AD applies to Costruzioni Aeronautiche Tecnam srl Model P2006T airplanes, all serial numbers, certificated in any category.
We are adopting a new airworthiness directive (AD) for Costruzioni Aeronautiche Tecnam srl Model P2006T airplanes. 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 a cracked engine mount. We are issuing this AD to require actions to address the unsafe condition on these products.
Unless already done, do the following actions as specified in paragraphs (f)(1) through (f)(3) of this AD:
(1) For airplanes with 600 hours time-in-service (TIS) or more as of July 15, 2014 (the effective date of this AD): Within the next 25 hours TIS after July 15, 2014 (the effective date of this AD) or within the next 30 days after July 15, 2014 (the effective date of this AD), whichever occurs first, inspect the left hand and right hand engine mounts, part number (P/N) 26-7-1200-000, for cracks and deformation following Costruzioni Aeronautiche TECNAM Mandatory Service Bulletin No. SB 138-CS, Rev. 0, dated November 25, 2013.
(2) For airplanes with less than 600 hours TIS as of July 15, 2014 (the effective date of this AD): After accumulating 600 hours TIS but before exceeding 625 hours TIS, inspect the left hand and right hand engine mounts, P/N 26-7-1200-000, for cracks and deformation following Costruzioni Aeronautiche TECNAM Mandatory Service Bulletin No. SB 138-CS, Rev. 0, dated November 25, 2013.
(3) If a crack or any other deformation is found during the inspection required by paragraph (f)(1) or (f)(2) of this AD, before further flight, you must contact Costruzioni Aeronautiche Tecnam srl to obtain FAA-approved repair instructions approved specifically for compliance with this AD and incorporate those instructions. You can find contact information for Costruzioni Aeronautiche Tecnam srl in paragraph (i)(3) of this AD. Use the occurrence report in Costruzioni Aeronautiche TECNAM Mandatory Service Bulletin No. SB 138-CS, Rev. 0, dated November 25, 2013.
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.
