Airworthiness Directive · Amendment 39-9123 · British Aerospace Regional Aircraft Airplanes
British Aerospace Regional Aircraft Airplanes
This AD applies to British Aerospace Regional Aircraft H.P. 137 Jetstream Mk. 1, Jetstream 3201, Jetstream Series 200, Jetstream Series 3101.
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 applies to Jetstream Aircraft Limited (JAL) HP137 Mk1, Jetstream series 200, and Jetstream Models 3101 and 3201 airplanes. This action requires repetitively inspecting the passenger/crew cabin door handle mounting platform structure for cracks, and, if found cracked, replacing with a structure of improved design as terminating action for the repetitive inspections. The actions specified by this AD are intended to prevent the inability to open the passenger/crew door because of a cracked internal handle mounting platform structure, which, if not detected and corrected, could result in passenger injury if emergency evacuation was needed.
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.
