Airworthiness Directive · Amendment 39-23350 · Airbus Canada Limited Partnership Airplanes
Airbus Canada Limited Partnership Airplanes
This AD applies to Airbus Canada Limited Partnership BD-500-1A10, BD-500-1A11.
The models as the FAA's AD index lists them. The serial ranges, installed parts and exceptions are in the AD itself: read it at the FAA.
The FAA is adopting a new airworthiness directive (AD) for all Airbus Canada Limited Partnership Model BD-500-1A10 and BD-500-1A11 airplanes. This AD was prompted by certification testing that found that environmental control system (ECS) ducts manufactured using a certain material failed the flammability test requirements established for compliance. This AD requires inspecting the affected ECS ducts, installing a fire-resistant sleeve assembly over any non-compliant ECS duct as applicable, and re-identifying the ceiling panel liners. This AD also prohibits the installation of ECS ducts as replacement parts under certain conditions. The FAA is issuing this AD to address the unsafe condition on these products.
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.
