AD: Univair

AD: Univair
AD NUMBER:  2002-26-02
MANUFACTURER: Univair Alon, Univair Ercoupe, Univair Forney, Univair Mooney
SUBJECT:  Airworthiness Directive 2002-26-02
SUMMARY:  This amendment adopts a new airworthiness directive (AD) that applies to all Univair Aircraft Corporation (Univair) Models Alon A-2 and A2-A; ERCO 415-C, 415-CD, 415-D, 415-E, and 415-G; Forney F-1 and F-1A, and Mooney M10 airplanes. This AD requires you to repetitively inspect the wing center section for evidence of corrosion through the installation of inspection openings, through the use of a specified scope and light source, or through the removal of the outer wing panels. This AD also requires you to repair or replace any parts where corrosion or corrosion damage is found, install cover plates if inspection openings were made, and send inspection results to Federal Aviation Administration (FAA). This AD is the result of several reports of corrosion being found throughout the wing center section structure. The actions specified by this AD are intended to detect and correct corrosion in the wing center section which could result in failure of the wing center section structure during flight. Such failure could lead to loss of control of the airplane.
