Airworthiness Directive · Amendment 39-10827 · Dornier Model 328-100 Series Airplanes
Dornier Model 328-100 Series Airplanes
Model 328-100 airplanes, serial numbers 3005 through 3039 inclusive, certificated in any category.
This amendment adopts a new airworthiness directive (AD), applicable to certain Dornier Model 328-100 series airplanes that requires replacement of the de-icing system timer with a new, improved timer. This amendment is prompted by reports of possible overheating and debonding of the propeller blade due to a failure of the de-icing system timer and a dormant short circuit in the propeller de-icer system. The actions specified by this AD are intended to prevent such overheating and debonding of the propeller blade, which could result in reduced controllability of the airplane.
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.
