BAE Systems (Operations) Limited Airplanes
This AD applies to BAE Systems (Operations) Limited Jetstream Model 4101.
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 Jetstream Model 4101 airplanes. This action requires a visual inspection of the passenger seat belt assemblies to determine if certain seat belt shackles are installed, and replacement of those shackles with improved ones. This amendment is prompted by reports indicating that certain passenger seat belt shackles have failed. The actions specified in this AD are intended to prevent reduced effectiveness of the passenger safety restraint system during take-off and landing or in an emergency situation, due to failure of the passenger seat belt shackles.
