Airworthiness Directive · Amendment 39-10476 · SOCATAGroupe AEROSPATIALE Model TBM 700 Airplanes
SOCATAGroupe AEROSPATIALE Model TBM 700 Airplanes
Model TBM 700 airplanes, serial numbers 24, 26, 27, 29 through 32, 34, 36 through 106, and all serial numbers equipped with modification MOD 70-019-25 or Supplemental Type Certificate (STC) SA2786CE, certificated in any category.
This amendment adopts a new airworthiness directive (AD) that applies to certain SOCATA--Groupe AEROSPATIALE (Socata) Model TBM 700 airplanes. This AD requires modifying the airplane's left-hand (LH) front side lower panel. This AD is the result of mandatory continuing airworthiness information (MCAI) issued by the airworthiness authority for France. The actions specified by this AD are intended to prevent interference between the side trim of the LH front side lower panel and the roll control compass on the LH wheel assembly, which could result in loss of directional control 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.
