Airworthiness Directive · Amendment 39-8796 · Bombardier Inc. Airplanes
Bombardier Inc. Airplanes
This AD applies to Bombardier Inc. CL-600-2B19 (Regional Jet Series 100).
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.
This amendment adopts a new airworthiness directive (AD) that is applicable to certain Canadair Model CL-600-2B19 (Regional Jet) series airplanes. This action revises the FAA-approved Airplane Flight Manual (AFM) to require that both integrated drive generators (IDG) be operational for dispatch. This AD also requires repetitive inspections of the IDG oil level, and replenishing with oil, if necessary; and, for certain airplanes, an inspection of the oil level, and replacement of the IDG with a serviceable unit. This AD also specifies an optional terminating action for the repetitive inspections and AFM revision. This amendment is prompted by reports of failures of the IDG constant speed drive (CSD) on Canadair Model CL-600-2B19 series airplanes. The actions specified in this AD are intended to prevent loss of engine oil and subsequent engine shutdown during flight.
