AD: Gulfstream Aerospace Corporation Airplanes

AD NUMBER: 2019-20-08

PRODUCT: Certain Gulfstream Aerospace Corporation (Gulfstream) Model G-IV and Model GIV-X airplanes.

ACTION: Final rule

SUMMARY: This AD was prompted by a revision to the airworthiness limitations section (ALS) of the aircraft maintenance manual (AMM) based on fatigue and damage tolerance testing and updated analysis.

This AD requires revising the maintenance or inspection program to incorporate updated inspection requirements and life limits that address fatigue cracking of principal structural elements.

DATES: This AD is effective December 13, 2019.

COST: The FAA estimates that this AD affects 711 airplanes of U.S. registry. Operators may incur the following costs in order to comply with this AD:

  • Revise ALS and AMM: 20 work-hours × $85 per hour = $1,700 per aircraft.

The extent of damage found during the inspection may vary from airplane to airplane. The FAA has no way of determining the number of airplanes that might need repairs or the cost of such repairs for each airplane.
