Airworthiness Directive · Amendment 39-8960 · Bombardier Inc. Airplanes
Bombardier Inc. Airplanes
This AD applies to Bombardier Inc. CL-600-2B16 (CL-601-3A), CL-600-2B16 (CL-601-3R), CL-600-2B16 (CL-604).
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 Canadair Model CL-600-2B16 series airplanes, that requires inspection to detect chafing of the wiring harness of the air driven generator (ADG), modification of the wiring harness, and repair of any chafed harness. This amendment is prompted by a report that the wiring harness on certain airplanes was produced in a configuration that is subject to chafing and electrical shorting. The actions specified by this AD are intended to prevent chafing or shorting of the wiring harness, which could result in loss of ADG power to the essential bus when the ADG is deployed during an emergency situation.
