AD: Eurocopter France Helicopters

AD NUMBER: 2013-08-17

PRODUCT: Eurocopter France (Eurocopter) Model SA-365N, SA-365N1, AS-365N2, AS 365 N3, andSA-366G1 helicopters.
SUBJECT: Airworthiness Directive 2013-08-17
ACTION: Final Rule

SUMMARY: This AD requires an initial and recurring inspection of the 9-degree frame for a crack, and repair of the frame if there is a crack. This AD was prompted by the discovery of a crack in the 9-degree frame of a Eurocopter Model AS-365N2 helicopter, and these cracks could develop on the other specified model helicopters because they contain the same 9-degree frame.

The actions specified by this AD are intended to detect a crack in the 9-degree frame to prevent loss of structural integrity and subsequent loss of control of the helicopter.

DATES: This AD is effective June 5, 2013.
