AD: Fokker Services B.V. Airplanes

AD NUMBER: 2014-23-09

PRODUCT: All Fokker Services B.V. Model F.28 Mark 0100 airplanes.

ACTION: Final Rule

SUMMARY: The FAA is superseding Airworthiness Directive (AD) 2000-17-03 for the product listed above.

AD 2000-17-03 required inspections of the nose landing gear (NLG) main fitting to detect cracking of the NLG main fitting subassembly, and corrective actions if necessary.

This new AD retains the requirements of AD 2000-17-03, requires installing a new part number NLG unit that terminates the repetitive inspections, and adds airplanes to the applicability. This AD was prompted by a report of an NLG main fitting failure.

The FAA is issuing this AD to prevent cracking of the NLG main fitting, which could lead to collapse of the NLG during takeoff and landing, and possible injury to the flight crew and passengers.

DATES: This AD becomes effective December 31, 2014.

FMI: AD
