BAE Systems (Operations) Limited Airplanes
This AD applies to BAE Systems (Operations) Limited ATP.
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), applicable to certain Jetstream Model ATP airplanes, that requires replacement of certain circuit breakers on the left- and right-hand AC generator panel assemblies with new circuit breakers. This amendment is prompted by reports of failures due to localized overheating of the electric power circuit for the air conditioning recirculation fan in the environmental control system (ECS). The actions specified by this AD are intended to prevent the recirculation fan circuit from overheating, which could lead to smoke and/or flame in the fuselage.
