AD: ATR--GIE Avions de Transport Régional Airplanes

AD NUMBER: 2015-26-09

PRODUCT: All ATR–GIE Avions de Transport Régional Model ATR42 airplanes.

ACTION: Final Rule

SUMMARY: This AD was prompted by several reports of a cracked floor beam at frame (FR) 26, and of discrepancies in certain wing inspection tasks in maintenance documents that could lead to errors in scheduling inspection intervals of structurally significant items (SSIs).

This AD requires repetitive inspections of certain floor beams and revision of the maintenance or inspection program to include inspections of several areas of the wings.

The FAA is issuing this AD to detect and correct any cracking of the floor beam at FR 26 and several areas of the wings, which could lead to reduced structural integrity of the airplane.

DATES: This AD becomes effective February 17, 2016.

FMI: AD
