Pilatus Aircraft Ltd. Models PC-12 and PC-12/45 Airplanes
Models PC-12 and PC-12/45 airplanes, serial numbers MSN 101 through 180, certificated in any category, that incorporate an executive cabin layout.
This amendment adopts a new airworthiness directive (AD) that applies to certain Pilatus Aircraft Ltd. (Pilatus) Models PC-12 and PC- 12/45 airplanes that incorporate an executive cabin layout. This AD requires modifying the lavatory wall and passenger seat configuration. This AD is the result of mandatory continuing airworthiness information (MCAI) issued by the airworthiness authority for Switzerland. The actions specified by this AD are intended to prevent head injuries during an airplane crash because the lavatory wall and passenger seat configuration do not meet current head injury criteria regulations.
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.
