AD: Fokker

AD NUMBER: 2007-16-11
MANUFACTURER: Fokker
SUBJECT: Airworthiness Directive 2007-16-11
SUMMARY:
The FAA is adopting a new airworthiness directive (AD) for certain Fokker Model F27 Mark 050 airplanes equipped with Dowty Type R.352 or R.410 series propellers.

This AD requires checking the maintenance records to determine whether Minnesota Mining and Manufacture Co. (3M )1300L adhesive was used to attach the de-icer assembly overshoes (boots) to the propeller blades, repetitive inspections of affected boots, and replacing boots attached with defective adhesive.

This AD results from three events of propeller blade de-icer assembly boots debonding and detaching during flight. This condition was caused by using 3M 1300L adhesive to attach the boot to the propeller blade.

We are issuing this AD to detect and correct boots attached with defective adhesive, which could result in debonding and separation of a boot from the airplane, consequent reduced structural integrity of the airplane, and possible injury to passengers and crew.
