AD: Socata

AD NUMBER: 2008-10-13
MANUFACTURER: Socata
SUBJECT: Airworthiness Directive 2008-10-13
SUMMARY:
We are adopting a new airworthiness directive (AD) for the products listed above.

This AD results from mandatory continuing airworthiness information (MCAI) issued by the aviation authority of another country to identify and correct an unsafe condition on an aviation product.

The MCAI describes the unsafe condition as: A rupture of the alternator and vapour cycle cooling system pulley drive assembly as reportedly been found. Such a failure could lead to the loss of the alternator and vapour cycle cooling systems and could also cause mechanical damage inside the powerplant compartment.

This AD requires actions that are intended to address the unsafe condition described in the MCAI.
