Airworthiness Directive · Amendment 39-10605 · Empresa Brasileira de Aeronautica S.A. (EMBRAER) Model EMB-145 Series Airplanes
Empresa Brasileira de Aeronautica S.A. (EMBRAER) Model EMB-145 Series Airplanes
Model EMB-145 series airplanes, serial numbers 145004 through 145029 inclusive; certificated in any category.
This amendment adopts a new airworthiness directive (AD), applicable to certain EMBRAER EMB-145 series airplanes, that requires modification of the windshield heating system in the flight compartment. This amendment is prompted by reports of overheating and delamination of the windshield because the windshield heating system failed to shut off during flight. The action specified by this AD is intended to prevent failure of the windshield heating system, which could result in reduced pilot visibility, structural degradation of the windshield, and depressurization of the airplane during flight.
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.
