AD: Eurocopter France (1)
AD NUMBER:
2003-14-19
MANUFACTURER: Eurocopter France
SUBJECT: Airworthiness Directive 2003-14-19


SUMMARY: This amendment adopts a new airworthiness directive (AD) for the specified Eurocopter France (Eurocopter) model helicopters that requires removing certain main servocontrols and replacing them with servocontrols that do not fall within the "Applicability" of this AD at specified intervals. This amendment is prompted by the discovery of an incorrect tightening torque load found on servocontrols that were overhauled by Hawker Pacific Aerospace. The actions specified by this AD are intended to prevent thread failure, separation of the upper end fitting that attaches the servocontrol cylinder to the upper ball end-fitting, and subsequent loss of control of the helicopter. (365, 366, EC109)
