This document publishes in the Federal Register an amendment adopting an airworthiness directive that was sent previously by individual letters to all known U.S. owners and operators of various transport category airplanes equipped with Allied Signal Commercial Avionics Systems CAS-81 TCAS. This amendment is prompted by reports of failure of the audio output of the CAS-81 TCAS. This AD requires a revision to the Airplane Flight Manual to provide the flightcrew with procedures to cycle power to the TCAS processor via the circuit breaker or power bus, and to perform a TCAS functional test to verify proper operation of the TCAS. The actions specified by this AD are intended to ensure that the flightcrew is advised of the potential hazard associated with failure of the audio output of the CAS-81 TCAS, and of the procedures necessary to address it.
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.
