Airworthiness Directive · Amendment 39-17936 · Time limits/maintenance checks
Dassault Aviation Airplanes
Superseded. A later AD replaced this one: AD 2020-04-22. Comply with the one in force.
This AD applies to Dassault Aviation Model FALCON 2000EX airplanes, certificated in any category, all serial numbers.
We are adopting a new airworthiness directive (AD) for all Dassault Aviation Model FALCON 2000EX airplanes. This AD was prompted by a revision to the airplane airworthiness limitations to introduce a corrosion prevention control program, among other changes, to the maintenance requirements and airworthiness limitations. This AD requires revising the maintenance or inspection program to include the maintenance tasks and airworthiness limitations specified in the airworthiness limitations section of the airplane maintenance manual. We are issuing this AD to prevent reduced structural integrity of the airplane.
Within 30 days after the effective date of this AD, revise the maintenance or inspection program, as applicable, to incorporate the information specified in Chapter 5-40, Airworthiness Limitations, DGT 113877, Revision 9, dated February 2013, of the Dassault Falcon 2000EX Maintenance Manual. The initial compliance time for accomplishing the actions specified in Chapter 5-40, Airworthiness Limitations, DGT 113877, Revision 9, dated February 2013, of the Dassault Falcon 2000EX Maintenance Manual, is within the times specified in that maintenance manual, or 30 days after the effective date of this AD, whichever occurs later, except as provided by paragraphs (g)(1) through (g)(4) of this AD.
(1) The term “landings” in the “First Inspection” column of any table in the service information means total airplane landings.
(2) The term “flight hours” in the “First Inspection” column of any table in the service information means total flight hours.
(3) The term “flight cycles” in the “First Inspection” column of any table in the service information means total flight cycles.
(4) For task number 52-20-00-610-801-01 52-205 the initial compliance time is within 24 months after the effective date of this AD.
Accomplishing the actions specified in paragraph (g) of this AD terminates the requirements of paragraph (g) of AD 2010-26-05, Amendment 39-16544 (75 FR 79952, December 21, 2010), for Dassault Aviation Model FALCON 2000EX airplanes.
After accomplishment of the revision required by paragraph (g) of this AD, no alternative actions (e.g., inspections) or intervals may be used unless the actions or intervals are approved as an alternative method of compliance (AMOC) in accordance with the procedures specified in paragraph (k) of this AD.
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.
