Airworthiness Directive · Amendment 39-19786 · Auto flight
Bombardier, Inc., Airplanes
Superseded. A later AD replaced this one: AD 2021-11-02. Comply with the one in force.
This AD applies to the Bombardier, Inc. airplanes identified in paragraphs (c)(1) through (5) of this AD, certificated in any category, all manufacturer serial numbers.
(1) Model CL-600-2B19 (Regional Jet Series 100 & 440) airplanes.
(2) Model CL-600-2C10 (Regional Jet Series 700, 701 & 702) airplanes.
(3) Model CL-600-2D15 (Regional Jet Series 705) airplanes.
(4) Model CL-600-2D24 (Regional Jet Series 900) airplanes.
(5) Model CL-600-2E25 (Regional Jet Series 1000) airplanes.
The FAA is adopting a new airworthiness directive (AD) for all Bombardier, Inc., Model CL-600-2B19 (Regional Jet Series 100 & 440) airplanes, Model CL-600-2C10 (Regional Jet Series 700, 701 & 702) airplanes, Model CL-600-2D15 (Regional Jet Series 705) airplanes, Model CL-600-2D24 (Regional Jet Series 900) airplanes, and Model CL-600-2E25 (Regional Jet Series 1000) airplanes. This AD was prompted by a report that during Automatic Flight Control System (AFCS) ALTS CAP or (V) ALTS CAP mode, the flight guidance/autopilot does not account for engine failure while capturing an altitude. This AD requires revising the existing airplane flight manual (AFM) to include a limitation and an abnormal operating procedure for the AFCS. The FAA is issuing this AD to address the unsafe condition on these products.
Within 30 days after the effective date of this AD: Revise the existing AFM to include the information in Subject 2, “Automatic Flight Control System (AFCS),” of Section 02-08, “System Limitations,” of Chapter 2, “LIMITATIONS;” and Subject 1.C, “Engine Failure in Climb During ALTS CAP,” or Subject 1.C, “Engine Failure in Climb During (V) ALTS CAP,” of Section 05-02, “In-flight Engine Failures,” of Chapter 5, “ABNORMAL PROCEDURES;” as applicable; of the applicable AFM identified in figure 1 to paragraph (g) 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.
