Airworthiness Directive · Amendment 39-19831 · Fuselage
Bombardier, Inc., Airplanes
This AD applies to Bombardier, Inc., Model CL-600-2B19 (Regional Jet series 100 & 440) airplanes, certificated in any category, serial numbers 7003 through 8999 inclusive.
The FAA is correcting an airworthiness directive (AD) that published in the Federal Register. That AD applies to certain Bombardier, Inc., Model CL-600-2B19 (Regional Jet series 100 & 440) airplanes. As published, paragraph (h)(2) of that AD specifies an incorrect service information reference for performing the inspection. This document corrects that error. In all other respects, the original document remains the same.
For airplane serial numbers 7003 through 8079 inclusive: Within 30 days from the effective date this AD, revise the existing maintenance or inspection program, as applicable, by incorporating the information specified in Airworthiness Limitations (AWL) task number 53-41-149 specified in Bombardier CL-600-2B19 Airworthiness Requirements Temporary Revision 2B-2265, dated July 19, 2018, to Appendix B—Airworthiness Limitations, of Part 2 of the Bombardier Maintenance Requirements Manual.
(1) The initial compliance time for doing the task is at the time specified in figure 1 to paragraph (g)(1) of this AD, or within 90 days after the effective date of this AD, whichever occurs later.
(2) For airplanes on which Bombardier Service Bulletin 601R-53-067, Bombardier Service Bulletin 601R-53-077, and AWL task number 53-41-194 have been done, the inspections in AWL task number 53-41-149 are not required in the areas covered by doublers at FS460 and FS513.
(3) For airplanes on which the initial inspection has been accomplished at 18,325 or more total flight cycles, and no cracks were found, as of October 7, 2003 (the effective date of AD 2003-09-04), the repetitive interval of 10,000 flight cycles starts from the completion date of the initial inspection.
(4) For airplanes that were previously inspected using AWL task number 53-41-193, perform an inspection using the information specified in AWL task number 53-41-149, provided in Bombardier CL-600-2B19 Airworthiness Requirements Temporary Revision 2B-2265, dated July 19, 2018, to Appendix B—Airworthiness Limitations, of Part 2 of the Bombardier Maintenance Requirements Manual, within 10,000 flight cycles from the previously accomplished inspection.
(1) For airplane serial numbers 8080 through 8999 inclusive: Within 30 days from the effective date of this AD, revise the existing maintenance or inspection program, as applicable, by incorporating the information specified in AWL task number 53-41-193 specified in Bombardier CL-600-2B19 Airworthiness Limitations Temporary Revision 2B-2266, dated July 19, 2018, to Appendix B—Airworthiness Limitations, of Part 2 of the Bombardier Maintenance Requirements Manual. Except as specified in paragraph (h)(2) of this AD, the initial compliance time for doing the task is at the time specified in Bombardier CL-600-2B19 Airworthiness Requirements Temporary Revision 2B-2266, dated July 19, 2018, to Appendix B—Airworthiness Limitations, of Part 2 of the Bombardier Maintenance Requirements Manual, or within 90 days after the effective date of this AD, whichever occurs later.
(2) For airplanes that were previously inspected using AWL task number 53-41-149, perform an inspection by incorporating the information specified in AWL task number 53-41-193, provided in Bombardier CL-600-2B19 Maintenance Requirements Temporary Revision 2B-2266, dated July 19, 2018, to Appendix B—Airworthiness Limitations, of Part 2 of the Bombardier Maintenance Requirements Manual, within 10,000 flight cycles from the previously accomplished inspection.
If any crack is found during any inspection required by this AD, before further flight, repair using a method approved by the Manager, New York ACO Branch, FAA; or Transport Canada Civil Aviation (TCCA); or Bombardier, Inc.'s TCCA Design Approval Organization (DAO), and accomplish any repair instructions, including any new airworthiness limitations and inspection requirements accordingly. If approved by the DAO, the approval must include the DAO-authorized signature.
After the maintenance or inspection program has been revised as required by paragraphs (g), (h), and (i) of this AD, as applicable, no alternative actions (e.g., inspections) or intervals may be used unless the actions or intervals are approved as an AMOC in accordance with the procedures specified in paragraph (k)(1) of this AD.
