Airworthiness Directive · Amendment 39-9774 · M7 Aerospace LLC Airplanes
M7 Aerospace LLC Airplanes
This AD applies to M7 Aerospace LLC SA226-AT, SA226-T, SA226-TC, SA226-T(B), SA227-AC (C-26A), SA227-AT, SA227-BC (C-26A), SA227-TT, SA26-AT, SA26-T.
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 supersedes AD 93-19-06, which currently requires repetitively inspecting acrylic cabin and cockpit side windows for cracks on certain Fairchild Aircraft SA26, SA226, and SA227 series airplanes, and, if cracks are found that exceed certain limitations, replacing that window. This action maintains the requirement of repetitively inspecting the cabin and cockpit side windows, and adds a life limit for the single-pane cockpit side windows. Acrylic window failures on the affected airplanes prompted this action. The actions specified by this AD are intended to prevent acrylic cabin or cockpit side window failures, which could result in airframe damage and decompression injuries. The incorporation by reference of certain publications listed in the regulations was previously approved by the Director of the Federal Register as of November 19, 1993 (58 FR 51771, October 5, 1993).
