Airworthiness Directive · Amendment 39-10828 · Saab Model SAAB 2000 Series Airplanes
Saab Model SAAB 2000 Series Airplanes
Model SAAB 2000 series airplanes, serial numbers -004 through -064 inclusive; certificated in any category.
This amendment supersedes an existing airworthiness directive (AD), applicable to certain Saab Model SAAB 2000 series airplanes, that currently requires deactivation of certain floormat heaters in the cabin area. In addition, that AD provides for optional terminating action for that deactivation. This amendment removes the optional terminating action of the existing AD and adds airplanes to the applicability of the existing AD. This amendment is prompted by issuance of mandatory continuing airworthiness information by a foreign civil airworthiness authority. The actions specified by this AD are intended to prevent short circuiting between the flight attendant's floormat heater and the floor panel, which could cause overheating of the floormat heater and lead to smoke or fire in the airplane cabin.
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.
