Bombardier Model CL-600-2B19 (Regional Jet Series 100) Series Airplanes
Superseded. A later AD replaced this one: AD 2001-03-08. Comply with the one in force.
Model CL-600-2B19 (Regional Jet Series 100) series airplanes, having serial numbers 7003 through 7054 inclusive, certificated in any category.
This amendment supersedes an existing airworthiness directive (AD), applicable to certain Bombardier Model CL-600-2B19 (Regional Jet Series 100) series airplanes, that currently requires revisions to the Airplane Flight Manual (AFM) to advise the flight crew of the need to perform daily checks to verify proper operation of the elevator control system, and to restrict altitude and airspeed operations under certain conditions. That AD also requires removal of all elevator flutter dampers. That AD was prompted by reports that the installation of certain shear pins may jam or restrict movement of the elevator. The actions specified by that AD are intended to prevent such jamming or restricting movement of the elevator and the resultant adverse effect on the controllability of the airplane. This amendment adds inspections of certain airplanes to detect deformation or discrepancies of the flutter damper hinge fittings and lug of the horizontal stabilizer, the elevator hinge/damper fitting, and the shear pin lugs; and requires replacement of discrepant parts with serviceable parts. This amendment also requires installation of new elevator flutter dampers, and replacement of shear pins and shear links with new, improved pins and links.
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.
