Airworthiness Directive · Amendment 39-10541 · Dornier Luftfahrt GmbH Models 228-100, 228-101, 228-200, 228-201, 228-202, and 228-212 Airplanes
Dornier Luftfahrt GmbH Models 228-100, 228-101, 228-200, 228-201, 228-202, and 228-212 Airplanes
Models 228-100, 228-101, 228-200, 228-201, 228- 202, and 228-212 airplanes, serial numbers 0001 through 8235, certificated in any category.
This amendment adopts a new airworthiness directive (AD) that applies to certain Dornier Luftfahrt GmbH (Dornier) Models 228-100, 228-101, 228-200, 228-201, 228-202, and 228-212 airplanes. This AD requires modifying the logic in the failure detection circuits of the landing gear uplock switches. This AD is the result of mandatory continuing airworthiness information (MCAI) issued by the airworthiness authority for Germany. The actions specified by this AD are intended to prevent a false warning indication of landing gear failure because of the design of the landing gear warning system, which could result in incorrect actions from the pilot based on the warning indications.
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.
