Airworthiness Directive · Amendment 39-10569 · Industrie Aeronautiche e Meccaniche Model Piaggio P-180 Airplanes
Industrie Aeronautiche e Meccaniche Model Piaggio P-180 Airplanes
Model Piaggio P-180 airplanes, serial numbers 1001, 1002, 1004, and 1006 through 1033, certificated in any category.
This amendment adopts a new airworthiness directive (AD) that applies to certain Industrie Aeronautiche e Meccaniche (I.A.M.) Model Piaggio P-180 airplanes. This AD requires modifying the low pitch stop switch support. This AD is the result of mandatory continuing airworthiness information (MCAI) issued by the airworthiness authority for Italy. The actions specified by this AD are intended to prevent low pitch stop switch support displacement, which could result in an improper cockpit indication that the propeller is in the Beta range and cause loss of control of the airplane.
