2020-11-14: The FAA is adopting a new airworthiness directive (AD) for certain Bombardier, Inc., Model BD-100-1A10 airplanes. This AD was prompted by reports of the loss of all air data system information provided to the flightcrew, which was caused by icing at high altitudes. This AD requires revising the existing airplane flight manual (AFM) to provide the flightcrew with procedures to stabilize the airplane's airspeed and attitude. The FAA is issuing this AD to address the unsafe condition on these products.
|
98-25-03: This amendment adopts a new airworthiness directive (AD) that applies to certain Cessna Aircraft Company (Cessna) Model 172R airplanes that are not equipped with an autopilot. This AD requires inspecting the right wing for an incorrectly routed, frayed, or damaged aileron control cable, and re-routing any incorrectly routed cable or replacing any frayed or damaged cable. The AD also requires reporting any incorrectly routed, frayed, or damaged cable to the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA). This AD is the result of a report of an incorrectly routed aileron control cable in the right wing of an airplane of the same type design to those affected by this AD. The cable was routed over the aileron auto pilot actuator pulley and the cable was rubbing on the cable guard. The actions specified by this AD are intended to prevent loss of aileron control caused by a damaged or frayed aileron control cable, which could result in loss of directional control of the airplane.

To prevent engine flameout when in or departing an icing environment, accomplish the following:
(a) Revise the airplane Pilot's Operating Handbook and Airplane Flight Manual (POH/AFM) by inserting Appendix 1 of this AD in the "LIMITATIONS" section of the POH/AFM. Appendix 1 procedures supersede any other POH/AFM procedures which may be contradictory.
NOTE: Automatic-relite ignition is a system which automatically energizes engine ignition without pilot action when engine RPM or torque decays below a specified level, and de-energizes engine ignition when RM or torque exceeds the specified level. It is not synonymouswith CONTINUOUS IGNITION.
(b) The requirements of paragraph (a) of this AD may be accomplished by the holder of a pilot certificate issued under Part 61 of the Federal Aviation Regulations on any airplane owned or operated by him. The person accomplishing these actions must make the appropriate aircraft maintenance record entry as prescribed by FAR 91.173.
(c) Airplanes may be flown in accordance with FAR 21.197 to a location where this AD may be accomplished.
(d) An equivalent method of compliance with this AD, if used, must be approved by contacting the Manager, Airplane Certification Branch, ASW-150, Rotorcraft Certification Directorate, P.O. Box 1689, Fort Worth, Texas 76101; Telephone (817) 877-5150.
All persons affected by this directive may obtain copies of the document referred to herein upon request to GTEC, P.O. Box 5217, Phoenix, Arizona 85010; Telephone (602) 231-1000; or Fairchild Aircraft Corporation, P.O.

APPENDIX 1
Supplement to the POH/AFM Fairchild Models SA 226-T,
SA 226-T(B) SA 226-AT, and SA 226-TC Airplanes
"The IGNITION MODE switches shall be selected to AUTO/CONT during all operations in actual or potential icing conditions described herein:
(1) During takeoff and climb out in actual or potential icing conditions.
*(2) When ice is visible on, or shedding from propeller(s), spinner(s), or leading edge(s).
*(3) Before selecting ANTI-ICE, when ice has accumulated.
(4) Immediately, any time engine flameout occurs as a possible result of ice ingestion.
(5) During approach and landing while in or shortly following flight in actual or potential icing conditions.
*Note: If icing conditions are entered in flight without the engine anti-icing system having been selected, switch one ENGINE system to an ENGINE HEAT position. If the engine runs satisfactorily, switch the second ENGINE system to an ENGINE HEAT position and check that the second engine continues to run satisfactorily.
For the purpose of this supplement, the following definition applies:
Potential icing conditions in precipitation or visible moisture meteorological conditions:
(1) Begin when the OAT is plus 5 degrees C (plus 41 degrees F) or colder, and
