Airworthiness Directive · Amendment 39-22085 · Auto flight
Bombardier, Inc., Airplanes
This AD applies to the Bombardier, Inc., airplanes, certificated in any category, identified in paragraphs (c)(1) through (3) of this AD.
(1) Model CL-600-1A11 (600), serial numbers 1001 through 1085 inclusive.
(2) Model CL-600-2A12 (601), serial numbers 3001 through 3066 inclusive.

The FAA is adopting a new airworthiness directive (AD) for certain Bombardier, Inc., Model CL-600-1A11 (600), CL-600-2A12 (601), and CL-600-2B16 (601-3A and 601-3R Variants) airplanes. This AD was prompted by reports that during certain operating modes, 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 a new limitation and procedure for operation during certain flight modes. 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 incorporate the information specified in the limitation and procedure specified in the applicable AFM specified in figure 1 to paragraph (g) of this AD.
