Airworthiness Directive · Amendment 39-9830 · Nomad TC Pty Ltd Airplanes
Nomad TC Pty Ltd Airplanes
This AD applies to Nomad TC Pty Ltd N22B, N22S, N24A.
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 Aerospace Technologies of Australia (ASTA) Nomad Models N22B, N22S, and N24A airplanes. This action requires repetitively inspecting the tailplane stabilizer center section and repairing any cracked tailplane structure. This AD also provides an optional modification as a terminating action, after an inspection in which no cracks are found. A tailplane failure on one of the affected airplanes prompted this action. The actions specified by this AD are intended to prevent cracking in the stabilizer center section, which, if not detected and corrected, could result in tailplane failure and loss of control of the airplane.
