AD: DeHavilland (Rust)b

AD NUMBER: 2003-05-05
MANUFACTURER: Robert E. Rust
SUBJECT: Airworthiness Directive 2003-05-05
SUMMARY: This amendment adopts a new airworthiness directive (AD) that applies to certain Robert E. Rust (R.E. Rust) Models DeHavilland DH.C1 Chipmunk 21, 22, and 22A airplanes. This AD requires you to inspect the fuselage to determine if a steel fuselage center-section tie bar fitted with bushings in the end lug bolt holes is installed. If this bushed steel fuselage center-section tie bar is installed, this AD decreases the safe life limit. This AD is the result of reports that certain replacement steel fuselage center-section tie bars installed on the affected airplanes could fail before the originally published safe life limit. The actions specified by this AD are intended to prevent early failure of these bushed steel fuselage center-section tie bars, which could result in reduced structural integrity of the wings. Such a condition could lead to loss of control of the airplane.
