The FAA is adopting a new airworthiness directive (AD) for certain Bombardier, Inc., Model BD-700-1A10 and BD-700-1A11 airplanes. This AD was prompted by a report that easy removal of the portable oxygen bottle from its support bracket may not always be possible on certain installations. This AD requires installation of a modified top bracket and new middle bracket on all affected portable oxygen bottle installations. The FAA is issuing this AD to address the unsafe condition on these products.
For the purposes of this AD, an affected portable oxygen bottle installation is defined as one that is installed in any of the airplanes specified in paragraphs (c)(1) and (2) of this AD.
Within 60 months after the effective date of this AD, install a modified top bracket and new middle bracket on all affected portable oxygen bottle installations in accordance with paragraph 2.B. of the Accomplishment Instructions of the applicable service information specified in figure 1 to paragraph (h) of this AD.
