Airworthiness Directive · Amendment 39-21845 · Nacelles/pylons
Yaborã Indústria Aeronáutica S.A. (Type Certificate Previously Held by Embraer S.A.) Airplanes
This AD applies to all Yaborã Indústria Aeronáutica S.A. (type certificate previously held by Embraer S.A.) Model ERJ 190-100 STD, -100 LR, -100 ECJ, -100 IGW, -200 STD, -200 LR, and -200 IGW airplanes, certificated in any category.
The FAA is superseding Airworthiness Directive (AD) 2014-16- 16, which applied to all Embraer S.A. Model ERJ 190-100 STD, -100 LR, - 100 ECJ, -100 IGW, -200 STD, -200 LR, and -200 IGW airplanes; and AD 2018-19-28, which applied to certain Embraer S.A. Model ERJ 190-100 STD, -100 LR, -100 ECJ, -100 IGW, -200 STD, -200 LR, and -200 IGW airplanes. AD 2014-16-16 required, for certain airplanes, retorquing and replacing the pylon lower link fittings, and for all airplanes, repetitive retorquing of those fittings. AD 2018-19-28 required modification of the attaching parts of the pylon lower link fittings. This AD continues to require those actions, and also requires application of a lower torque value, inspection of certain shear pins and replacement if necessary, and revised compliance times for the modification; as specified in an Ag[ecirc]ncia Nacional de Avia[ccedil][atilde]o Civil (ANAC) AD, which is incorporated by reference. This AD also prohibits the installation of affected parts. The FAA is issuing this AD to address the unsafe condition on these products.
For airplanes identified in Agência Nacional de Aviação Civil (ANAC) AD 2020-06-02R02, effective November 30, 2020 (ANAC AD 2020-06-02R02): Except as specified in paragraphs (h) and (i) of this AD, comply with all required actions and compliance times specified in, and in accordance with, ANAC AD 2020-06-02R02.

(3) Where ANAC AD 2020-06-02R02 refers to April 25, 2017, this AD requires using November 2, 2018 (the effective date of AD 2018-19-28).
(4) Paragraphs (y), “Alternative methods of compliance (AMOCs),” and (z), “Material incorporated by reference,” of ANAC AD 2020-06-02R02 do not apply to this AD.
(5) Where ANAC AD 2020-06-02R02 specifies “replace immediately,” this AD requires replacing “before further flight.”
