Superseded. A later AD replaced this one: AD 2000-04-19. Comply with the one in force.

This document publishes in the Federal Register an amendment adopting airworthiness directive (AD) 97-21-16 that was sent previously to all known U.S. owners and operators of Dassault Model Mystere-Falcon series airplanes by individual notices. This AD requires a revision to the Limitations section of the FAA-approved Airplane Flight Manual (AFM) to include procedures to use certain values to correctly gauge the minimum allowable N1 speed of the operative engines during operation in icing conditions. This action is prompted by a report indicating that erroneous minimum anti-icing N1 thrust setting indications were displayed on the Engine Indication Electronic Display (EIED). The actions specified by this AD are intended to prevent flightcrew use of erroneous N1 thrust setting information displayed on the EIED, which could result in in-flight shutdown of engine(s).
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.
