Airworthiness Directive · Amendment 39-10424 · British Aerospace Model BAe 146-100A, - 200A, and -300A, and Model Avro 146-RJ Series Airplanes
British Aerospace Model BAe 146-100A, - 200A, and -300A, and Model Avro 146-RJ Series Airplanes
Model BAe 146-100A, -200A, and -300A, and Model Avro 146-RJ series airplanes; certificated in any category; having the following constructors numbers: Model Constructors numbers BAe 146-100A, -200A, and -300A...... All. Avro 146-RJ70/70A................... All up to and including E1267. Avro 146-RJ85/85A................... All up to and including E2300. Avro 146-RJ100/100A................. All up to and including E3301.
This amendment adopts a new airworthiness directive (AD), applicable to certain British Aerospace Model BAe 146-100A, -200A, and -300A, and Model Avro 146-RJ series airplanes, that requires repetitive inspections of the attachment brackets between the horizontal and vertical stabilizers to detect intergranular corrosion, and follow-on actions. This amendment is prompted by issuance of mandatory continuing airworthiness information by a foreign civil airworthiness authority. The actions specified by this AD are intended to detect and correct reduced structural integrity of the stabilizer brackets due to corrosion, which could result in reduced controllability of the airplane.
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.
