AD: 328 Support Services GmbH

AD NUMBER: 2008-17-01
MANUFACTURER: 328 Support Services GmbH
SUBJECT: Airworthiness Directive 2008-17-01
SUMMARY: The FAA is superseding an existing airworthiness directive (AD), which applies to all AvCraft Dornier Model 328-100 airplanes. That AD currently requires modifying the electrical wiring of the fuel pumps; installing insulation at the hand flow control and shut -off valves, and other components of the environmental control system; and installing markings at fuel wiring harnesses. The existing AD also requires revising the Airworthiness Limitations section of the Instructions for Continued Airworthiness to incorporate new inspections of the fuel tank system.This new AD replaces the flight-hour-based threshold for conducting certain initial inspections,with an 8-year threshold. This AD results from fuel system reviews conducted by the manufacturer. We are issuing this AD to reduce the potential of ignition sources inside fuel tanks,which, in combination with flammable fuel vapors, could result in fuel tank explosions and consequent loss of the airplane.
