SUBJECT: Airworthiness Directive 2004-07-18
SUMMARY: This amendment adopts a new airworthiness
directive (AD), applicable to certain Bombardier Model CL-600-2B19
(Regional Jet Series 100 & 440) airplanes, that requires
replacement of landing gear control handle components with new,
improved components. This action is necessary to prevent an
inability to lower or retract the landing gear using the landing
gear control handle, which could result in use of Emergency
Procedures using the landing gear manual release. This action is
intended to address the identified unsafe condition.
