Airworthiness Directive · Amendment 39-19205 · Engine oil
Pacific Aerospace Limited Airplanes
Superseded. A later AD replaced this one: AD 2020-16-20. Comply with the one in force.
This AD applies to Pacific Aerospace Limited Model 750XL airplanes, all serial numbers up to XL217, 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 an aviation authority of another country to identify and correct an unsafe condition on an aviation product. The MCAI describes the unsafe condition as incorrectly marked and annunciated low oil pressure indication warnings. We are issuing this AD to require actions to address the unsafe condition on these products.
Unless already done, do the following actions in paragraphs (f)(1) through (4) of this AD, as applicable:
(1) For airplanes with Pilots Operating Handbook (POH) AIR 2825: Within the next 30 days after April 12, 2018 (the effective date of this AD), insert Pacific Aerospace temporary revisions XL/POH/00/001, XL/POH/02/001, and XUPOH/03/001, into the Pacific Aerospace Limited (PAL) 750XL POH AIR 2825 as specified in Pacific Aerospace Temporary Revision Instruction Letter, dated August 2017.
(2) For airplanes with Pilots Operating Handbook (POH) AIR 3237: Within the next 30 days after April 12, 2018 (the effective date of this AD), insert Pacific Aerospace temporary revisions XL/POH/00/001, XUPOH/02/001, XUPOH/03/001, and XUPOH/03/002, into the PAL 750XL POH AIR 3237 as specified in Pacific Aerospace Temporary Revision Instruction Letter, dated August 2017.
(3) For Pacific Aerospace 750XL airplanes up to serial number XL217: Within the next 100 hours time-in-service (TIS) after April 12, 2018 (the effective date of this AD) or within the next 12 months after April 12, 2018 (the effective date of this AD), whichever occurs first, replace the pressure switch for the low oil pressure light per the instructions in Part A of Pacific Aerospace Limited Mandatory Service Bulletin (PALMSB) PACSB/XL/088, dated August 11, 2017.
(4) For Pacific Aerospace 750XL airplanes up to serial number XL217 fitted with PIN INS 60-8 oil pressure/temperature indicator: Within the next 100 hours TIS after April 12, 2018 (the effective date of this AD) or within the next 12 months after April 12, 2018 (the effective date of this AD), whichever occurs first, replace the oil pressure/temperature indicator per the instructions in Part B of PALMSB PACSB/XL/088, dated August 11, 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.
