AD: Eurocopter Deutschland GmbH Helicopters

AD NUMBER: 2013-18-05

PRODUCT: Eurocopter Deutschland GmbH (ECD) Model EC135P1, EC135P2, EC135P2+, EC135T1, EC135T2, and EC135T2+ helicopters with certain fire extinguishing systems installed.
SUBJECT: Airworthiness Directive 2013-18-05
ACTION: Final Rule

SUMMARY: This AD requires modifying the fire extinguishing system injection tubes.

This AD is prompted by a report that the injection tubes are deforming due to heat. The actions required by this AD are intended to prevent deformation of the fire extinguishing system injection tubes during a fire, which could result in impaired distribution of the fire extinguishing agent, failure of the fire extinguishing system to contain an engine fire, and subsequent loss of control of the helicopter.

DATES: This AD is effective October 18, 2013.
