AD 2022-18-03 Prompted By Typographical Errors Found In Certain Document Numbers Specified In The Preamble...
The FAA is superseding Airworthiness Directive (AD) 2022-05-13, which applied to certain Honda Aircraft Company LLC (Honda) Model HA-420 airplanes.
AD 2022-05-13 required incorporating temporary revisions into the airplane flight manual (AFM) and the quick reference handbook (QRH) that modify procedures for windshield heat operation until the affected windshield assemblies are replaced. This AD was prompted by typographical errors found in certain document numbers specified in the preamble and in certain paragraphs of the regulatory information in AD 2022-05-13. This AD retains all actions required by AD 2022-05-13 and corrects the incorrect document numbers. The FAA is issuing this AD to address the unsafe condition on these products. This AD is effective September 22, 2022.
Supplementary Information: The FAA issued AD 2022-05-13, Amendment 39-21965 (87 FR 14155, March 14, 2022) (AD 2022-0513), for certain serial-numbered Honda Model HA-420 airplanes, with a certain windshield assembly installed. AD 2022-05-13 required incorporating temporary revisions into the AFM and the QRH that modify procedures for windshield heat operation until the affected windshield assemblies are replaced. AD 2022-05-13 resulted from a report of in-flight smoke and fire that initiated from the windshield heat power wire braid. The FAA issued AD 2022-05-13 to prevent arcing of the windshield heat power wire braid, which could ignite the wire sheathing and sealant and the windshield acrylic, resulting in possible smoke and fire in the cockpit.
