AD: Bombardier

AD NUMBER:  PL2003-02-51
MANUFACTURER: Bombardier
SUBJECT: Airworthiness Directive PL2003-02-51
SUMMARY: This document publishes in the Federal Register an amendment adopting airworthiness directive (AD) 2003-02-51 that was sent previously to all known U.S. owners and operators of Bombardier Model CL-600-2C10 (Regional Jet Series 700 and 701) series airplanes by individual notices.This AD requires an airplane flight manual (AFM) revision to introduce new quantity limitations for the center fuel tank and associated procedures; to limit flight to within 30 minutes of a suitable alternative airport; and to limit the center tank fuel quantity to 1,500 lbs. (680 kgs.) maximum at takeoff. This action is prompted by issuance of mandatory continuing airworthiness information by a civil airworthiness authority. The actions specified by this AD are intended to detect and correct discrepancies in the fuel distribution system, which could cause the center tank to overfill and fuel to leak from the center tank vent system or to become inaccessible, and could result in engine fuel starvation.
