Airworthiness Directive · Amendment 39-19188 · Air conditioning
Pacific Aerospace Limited Airplanes
Superseded. A later AD replaced this one: AD 2018-10-04. Comply with the one in force.
This AD applies to Pacific Aerospace Limited Models 750XL airplanes, all serial numbers up to and to include serial number XL220, certificated in any category.
We are adopting a new airworthiness directive (AD) for Pacific Aerospace Limited Model 750XL airplanes. This AD results from mandatory continuing airworthiness information (MCAI) issued by the aviation authority of another country to identify and correct an unsafe condition on an aviation product. The MCAI describes the unsafe condition as abrasion damage of components or wiring behind the instrument panel. We are issuing this AD to require actions to address the unsafe condition on these products.
Unless already done, do the following actions.
(1) Within 15 days after March 5, 2018 (the effective date of this AD), inspect the ventilation hosing, components, and wiring behind the instrument panel for signs of chafing and/or damage following the Accomplishment Instructions in Pacific Aerospace Mandatory Service Bulletin PACSB/XL/083, Issue 1, dated December 15, 2017.
(2) If any signs of chafing and/or abrasion are found during the inspection required in paragraph (f)(1) of this AD, before further flight, contact the manufacturer for an FAA-approved repair approved specifically for this AD. Use the contact information found in paragraph (i)(3) of this AD to contact the manufacturer.
(3) Within 45 days after March 5, 2018 (the effective date of this AD), wrap the ventilation hose in anti-abrasion tape and reroute the hose following the Accomplishment Instructions in Pacific Aerospace Mandatory Service Bulletin PACSB/XL/083, Issue 1, dated December 15, 2017.
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.
