AD: Fokker

AD NUMBER: 2007-04-23
MANUFACTURER: Fokker
SUBJECT: Airworthiness Directive 2007-04-23
SUMMARY:
The FAA is superseding an existing airworthiness directive (AD), which applies to certain Fokker Model F.28 Mark 0070 and 0100 airplanes.

That AD currently requires a one-time inspection of the sliding members in the main landing gear (MLG) for cracking and replacement of the sliding members with serviceable parts if necessary. This new AD adds repetitive magnetic particle inspections of the sliding members of the MLG for cracking and corrective actions as necessary.

This AD results from inspection findings that have shown repetitive inspections are needed to establish fleet safety.

We are issuing this AD to detect and correct fatigue cracking of the sliding member, which could result in possible separation of the MLG from the airplane and consequent reduced controllability of the airplane upon landing and possible injury to passengers.
