SUMMARY: This AD was prompted by a report indicating that two elevator booster assemblies experienced significant hydraulic fluid leaks, caused by fatigue cracks in the actuator cylinder.

This AD requires an inspection to determine the part number of the elevator booster actuator, repetitive ultrasonic inspections of the actuator to detect cracking, and replacement of cracked elevator booster assemblies.

DATES: This AD is effective February 28, 2020.

COST: The FAA estimates that this AD affects 7 airplanes of U.S. registry. Operators may incur the following costs in order to comply with this AD:

  • Part number inspection: 1 work-hour × $85 per hour = $85 per airplane.
  • Ultrasonic inspections: 5 work-hours × $85 per hour = $425 per inspection cycle per airplane.

Replacement (if necessary):

  • Labor: 10 work-hours × $85 per hour = $850.
  • Pats: $43,000.
  • Cost per airplane: $43,850.
