Airworthiness Directive · Amendment 39-9916 · Saab Model SAAB 2000 Series Airplanes
Saab Model SAAB 2000 Series Airplanes
Model SAAB 2000 series airplanes, having serial numbers 002 through 025, inclusive; certificated in any category.
This amendment adopts a new airworthiness directive (AD), applicable to certain Saab Model SAAB 2000 series airplanes, that requires modification and sealing of the firezone compartment of the nacelle of the left and right engines. This amendment is prompted by reports indicating that firezone compartments have not been completely sealed. The actions specified by this AD are intended to prevent flame, fuel, and vapor from entering compartments behind the firezone compartment. This condition, if not corrected, and if combined with a fire source in the firezone compartment, could result in an uncontrollable fire outside the firezone compartment.
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.
