Airworthiness Directive · Amendment 39-19892 · Auto flight
Bombardier, Inc., Airplanes
Superseded. A later AD replaced this one: AD 2023-12-06. Comply with the one in force.
This AD applies to Bombardier, Inc., Model BD-100-1A10 airplanes, certificated in any category, serial numbers 20003 through 20500 inclusive and 20501 through 20752 inclusive.
The FAA is adopting a new airworthiness directive (AD) for certain Bombardier, Inc., Model BD-100-1A10 airplanes. This AD was prompted by a report that during 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 provide the flightcrew with new warnings for "Autoflight" and "Engine Failure in Climb During ALTS CAP." 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 the “Autoflight” procedure in Section 02-04, “System Limitations,” of the LIMITATIONS section, and “Engine Failure in Climb During ALTS CAP,” procedure in Section 03-32, “Powerplant,” of the EMERGENCY PROCEDURES section; of the Bombardier Challenger 300 Airplane Flight Manual, Publication No. CSP 100-1, Revision 53, dated September 5, 2018 (for airplanes having serial numbers 20003 through 20500 inclusive); or the Bombardier Challenger 350 Airplane Flight Manual, Publication No. CH 350 AFM, Revision 19, dated September 5, 2018 (for airplanes having serial numbers 20501 through 20752 inclusive).
