Airworthiness Directive · Amendment 39-10995 · Fokker Model F.28 Mark 0100 Series Airplanes
Fokker Model F.28 Mark 0100 Series Airplanes
Model F.28 Mark 0100 series airplanes, serial numbers 11244 through 11504 inclusive, 11506, 11507, 11509, 11512 through 11515 inclusive, 11517, 11519, 11520, 11522, 11523, and 11527; certificated in any category.
This amendment adopts a new airworthiness directive (AD), applicable to certain Fokker Model F.28 Mark 0100 series airplanes, that requires modification of the aft cabin sidewall area to improve decompression venting and, for certain airplanes, modification of the aft wardrobe/stowage area door and installation of decompression panels to improve decompression venting. 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 damage to the cabin floor in the event of sudden decompression in the cargo compartment, which could result in injury to passengers, reduced structural integrity of the airplane, and the loss of airplane systems.
