Airworthiness Directive · Amendment 39-10322 · Fokker Model F28 Mark 0070 and Mark 0100 Series Airplanes
Fokker Model F28 Mark 0070 and Mark 0100 Series Airplanes
All Model F28 Mark 0070 and Mark 0100 series airplanes, certificated in any category.
This amendment adopts a new airworthiness directive (AD), applicable to all Fokker Model F28 Mark 0070 and Mark 0100 series airplanes, that requires a one-time visual inspection to detect cracking of the brake torque tube lever, and corrective action, if necessary. This amendment is prompted by the issuance of mandatory continuing airworthiness information by a foreign civil airworthiness authority. The actions specified by this AD are intended to prevent failure of the brake torque tube lever, which could result in a disconnection between the brake pedal and brake system, and consequent reduced directional controllability of the airplane during landing.
