AD: Pilatus

AD NUMBER: 2009-05-07
MANUFACTURER: Pilatus
SUBJECT: Airworthiness Directive 2009-05-07
SUMMARY:
We are adopting a new airworthiness directive (AD) for the products listed above that will supersede an existing AD. This AD results from mandatory continuing airworthiness information(MCAI) issued by the aviation authority of another country to identify and correct an unsafe condition on an aviation product. The MCAI describes the unsafe condition as: Some operators have reported occurrences where the rear stick-pusher cable clamp shifted forward on the elevator cable. This condition, if not corrected, may reduce the effectiveness of the stick-pusher and/or limit elevator control movement. Ambiguous information in the adjustment procedure for the stick-pusher cable tension and stick-pusher cable tension relaxation with time were identified as contributing factors. This AD requires actions that are intended to address the unsafe condition described in the MCAI.
