AD: Fokker

AD NUMBER:  2002-26-16
MANUFACTURER: Fokker
SUBJECT:  Airworthiness Directive 2002-26-16
SUMMARY:  This amendment adopts a new airworthiness directive (AD), applicable to all Fokker Model F.28 Mark 0070 and 0100 series airplanes, that requires measurement of the over-center force of the thrust reverser operating levers, a functional test of the secondary lock solenoid of the thrust reversers, and corrective actions if necessary. The actions specified by this AD are intended to detect and correct an insufficient over-center force in the corresponding thrust reverser operating lever, and incorrect setting of the thrust reverser selector switch (S9), which could result in uncommanded deployment of the thrust reversers during flight and consequent reduced controllability of the airplane. This AD is intended to address the identified unsafe condition.
