AD: Piaggio Aero Industries

AD NUMBER: 2011-24-01

MANUFACTURER: Piaggio Aero Industries S.p.A. Airplanes
SUBJECT: Airworthiness Directive 2011-24-01
ACTION: Final rule

SUMMARY: The FAA is adopting a new airworthiness directive (AD) for Piaggio Aero Industries
S.p.A. Model P-180 airplanes. This AD results from mandatory continuing airworthiness information
(MCAI) issued by an aviation authority of another country to identify and correct an unsafe condition
on an aviation product. The MCAI describes the unsafe condition as:

Some lock sleeves (part number (P/N) 114146681), which were installed in some Main Landing Gear (MLG) actuators, had been incorrectly manufactured.

If left uncorrected, this condition could lead to failure to lock the MLG actuator or to its unlock from the correct position, with subsequent possible damage to the aeroplane and injuries to occupants during landing.

DATES: This AD is effective December 22, 2011

FMI: AD
