BAE Systems (Operations) Limited Airplanes
This AD applies to BAE Systems (Operations) Limited ATP.
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), applicable to certain Jetstream Model BAe ATP airplanes, that requires repetitive inspections of the ram air inlet ducts for structural integrity and security of fasteners, and repairs, if necessary. This amendment also provides an optional terminating modification for the repetitive inspections. This amendment is prompted by a report of the separation of a ram air inlet duct from the airplane during flight. The actions specified by this AD are intended to prevent such separation, which could pose a hazard to persons or property on the ground.
