AD: Bombardier DHC-8

AD NUMBER: 2012-04-08

PRODUCT: Certain Model DHC-8-102, -103, and -106 airplanes and Model DHC-8-200, -300, and -400 series airplanes.
SUBJECT: Airworthiness Directive 2012-04-08
ACTION: Final Rule

SUMMARY: This AD was prompted by reports of cracking of the DHC-8 Series 100 rudder actuator mounting bracket. This AD requires modifying the mounting adapters of the power control unit (PCU). The FAA is issuing this AD to prevent loss of both rudder PCU actuators which could result in free play of the rudder control surface and loss of controllability of the airplane.

DATES: This AD becomes effective April 10, 2012.
