AD: Fokker Services B.V. Airplanes

AD NUMBER: 2012-22-05

PRODUCT: Certain Fokker Services B.V. Model F.28 Mark 0070 and 0100 airplanes.
SUBJECT: Airworthiness Directive 2012-22-05
ACTION: Final Rule

SUMMARY: The FAA is superseding an existing airworthiness directive (AD) for the product listed above. That AD currently requires performing a detailed visual inspection for cracks of the pistons on the main landing gear (MLG), and replacing the affected pistons if necessary.

This new AD also requires modifying the MLG by installing a piston containing a certain part number, and revising the airplane maintenance program. This AD was prompted by a new modification developed to safeguard the integrity of the MLG assembly and improve surface protection of the affected area of the MLG piston.

The FAA is issuing this AD to prevent MLG failure, possibly resulting in loss of control of the airplane during the landing roll-out.

DATES: This AD becomes effective December 20, 2012.

FMI: AD
