Airworthiness Directive · Amendment 39-9359 · Mooney Aviation Company Inc Airplanes
Mooney Aviation Company Inc Airplanes
This AD applies to Mooney Aviation Company Inc M20K.
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 Mooney Aircraft Corporation (Mooney) Model M20K airplanes. This action requires inspecting to see if the airplane is equipped with a Gerdes fuel selector valve, part number (P/N) A-2580, and replacing any Gerdes fuel selector valve with an Airight fuel selector valve. Malfunction of a Gerdes fuel selector valve on an affected airplane, where the valve did not allow the operator to select the appropriate fuel tank, prompted this action. The actions specified by this AD are intended to prevent fuel selector valve malfunction, which, if not detected and corrected, will prevent the airplane operator from selecting the appropriate fuel tank, resulting in an unscheduled landing.
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.
