AD: Airbus Defense And Space S.A.

AD NUMBER: 2016-11-08

PRODUCT: Certain CASA Model CN-235 series airplanes.

ACTION: Final Rule

SUMMARY: The FAA is superseding Airworthiness Directive (AD) 2001-12-18 for the airplanes listed above.

AD 2001-12-18 required modification of the rigging of the engine control cable assembly and replacement of either the entire engine control cable assembly or a segment of the control cables.

This new AD would retain the requirements of AD 2001-12-18.

This new AD also requires repetitive replacements of each power lever and condition lever Teleflex cable with a new or serviceable part, and removes airplanes from the applicability.

This AD was prompted by reports of new occurrences of cable disruption on a certain part number; the disruption is caused by microcracks along the cable surface.

The FAA is issuing this AD to prevent fatigue of the engine control cables, leading to breakage of the cables, which could result in reduced controllability of the airplane.

DATES: This AD is effective July 6, 2016

FMI: AD
