AD: Bell Helicopter Textron Canada Inc. Helicopters

AD NUMBER: 2013-18-03

PRODUCT: Certain Bell Helicopter Textron Canada Inc. (BHT) Model 206A, 206B, and 206L helicopters.
SUBJECT: Airworthiness Directive 2013-18-03
ACTION: Final Rule

SUMMARY:  This AD requires replacing certain part-numbered engine auto-relight kit control boxes. This AD was prompted by a design review that revealed the control box chipset did not meet the required temperature range requirements, which could cause the control box to malfunction, disabling the engine auto-relight system.

The actions of this AD are intended to prevent a disabled auto-relight system, failure of the engine to relight after a flame-out, increased pilot workload during a power loss emergency, and subsequent loss of control of the helicopter.

DATES: This AD is effective October 11, 2013.
