Airworthiness Directive · Amendment 39-10567 · British Aerospace Jetstream Model 3101 Airplanes
British Aerospace Jetstream Model 3101 Airplanes
Jetstream Model 3101 airplanes, serial numbers 601 through 646, 648 through 655, 657, 658, and 660, certificated in any category.
This amendment adopts a new airworthiness directive (AD) that applies to certain British Aerospace Jetstream Model 3101 airplanes. This AD requires modifying the emergency hydraulic hand-pump by increasing the length of the access aperture. This AD is the result of mandatory continuing airworthiness information (MCAI) issued by the airworthiness authority for the United Kingdom. The actions specified by this AD are intended to prevent difficulty accessing the emergency hydraulic hand-pump because of the current design, which, in the event of a hydraulic system failure, could result in the inability to operate the flaps and landing gear.
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.
