Airworthiness Directive · Amendment 39-19554 · Flight controls
Pacific Aerospace Limited Airplanes
This AD applies to Pacific Aerospace Limited Model 750XL airplanes, all serial numbers through 215, 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 an incorrect size bolt may have been used to assemble the elevator bellcrank pivot joint. 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) and (2) of this AD:
(1) Within the next 150 hours time-in-service after March 28, 2019 (the effective date of this AD) or within the next 12 months after March 28, 2019 (the effective date of this AD), whichever occurs later, inspect the elevator bellcrank pivot joint to determine the length and the part number (P/N) of the bolt installed. Do the inspection using the Inspection Instructions, steps 1 through 3, in Pacific Aerospace Service Bulletin PACSB/XL/097, Issue 1, dated March 12, 2018.
(2) If you determine bolt, P/N AN4-20, is installed during the inspection required in paragraph (f)(1) of this AD, before further flight, take all necessary corrective actions using the Accomplishment Instructions in Pacific Aerospace Service Bulletin PACSB/XL/097, Issue 1, dated March 12, 2018.
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.
