Bombardier Model CL-600-2B16 Series Airplanes Modified in Accordance With Supplemental Type Certificate (STC) SA6003NM
Model CL-600-2B16 series airplanes that have been modified in accordance with Supplemental Type Certificate SA6003NM, certificated in any category.
This amendment adopts a new airworthiness directive (AD) that is applicable to certain Bombardier Model CL-600-2B16 series airplanes. This action requires disabling the remote fuel/defuel panel in the cockpit. This action also provides for an optional modification of the remote fuel/defuel panel, which would terminate the requirement to disable the panel. This amendment is prompted by reports of in-flight failure of the panel that resulted when a circuit breaker on a battery bus opened due to insufficient current flow capacity. The actions specified in this AD are intended to prevent the circuit breakers from opening during flight, which could result in irreversible loss of engine indicating and fuel quantity systems in the cockpit.
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.
