Covers Multiple Models With Retractable Landing Gear
The FAA has issued a Special Airworthiness Information Bulletin (SAIB) concerning landing gear actuators on Textron Aviation Inc. (Cessna Aircraft Company) Models 172RG, R182, TR182, FR182, and all variants of 210/T210/P210-series airplanes with the exception of the Models 210 and 210A airplanes. The intent is to emphasize the importance of the inspection of main landing gear actuator assemblies following Textron Aviation Inc. supplemental inspection documents (SIDs) applicable to each model to prevent malfunctions related to gear extension and retraction.
The first new product since the relocation of experimental aircraft pioneer Lancair International to Texas is the 4-place MAKO. The new aircraft is scheduled to make its first appearance at this summer's EAA AirVenture event July 24-30.
