Airworthiness Directive · Amendment 39-21196 · Engine controls
Pacific Aerospace Limited Airplanes
This AD applies to Pacific Aerospace Limited Model 750XL airplanes, serial numbers 101 through 216, 220, 8001, and 8002, certificated in any category.
The FAA is adopting a new airworthiness directive (AD) for Pacific Aerospace Limited Model 750XL airplanes. This AD results from mandatory continuing airworthiness information (MCAI) issued by the aviation authority of another country to identify and correct an unsafe condition on an aviation product. The MCAI describes the unsafe condition as inadvertent fuel shut-off to the engine during the operation of the flaps due to the fuel and flap control levers being located too closely together. The FAA is issuing this AD to address the unsafe condition on these products.
Unless already done, within the next 30 days after September 8, 2020 (the effective date of this AD), inspect the position of the fuel condition lever by following the Accomplishment Instructions, paragraph 2(1), of Pacific Aerospace Mandatory Service Bulletin PACSB/XL/111, Issue 1, dated June 18, 2019 (MSB PACSB/XL/111). If the fuel condition lever is not positioned against the left side of the control guide slot in the ground idle position, before further flight, adjust the fuel condition level position by following the Accomplishment Instructions, paragraph 2(3), of MSB PACSB/XL/111.
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.
