Airworthiness Directive · Amendment 39-21200 · Flight controls
Pacific Aerospace Limited Airplanes
This AD applies to Pacific Aerospace Limited Model 750XL airplanes, serial numbers 101 through 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 the outer race of bearing migrating out of the aileron pivot fork on the control column. The FAA is issuing this AD to address the unsafe condition on these products.
Unless already done, within 10 hours time-in-service after September 7, 2020 (the effective date of this AD) or within 15 days after September 7, 2020 (the effective date of this AD), whichever occurs first, install retaining hardware on each aileron pivot fork bearing assembly fork end on the starboard and port control columns in accordance with Part B-Installation-hardware of the Accomplishment Instructions in Pacific Aerospace Limited Mandatory Service Bulletin PACSB/XL/115, Issue 3, dated January 21, 2019; Pacific Aerospace Limited Drawing Number WAS 7, Issue B, dated November 27, 2018; and Pacific Aerospace Limited Drawing Number WAS18, Issue NC, dated December 13, 2018.
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.
