AD: EADS CASA Airplanes

AD NUMBER: 2013-02-12

PRODUCT: All EADS CASA (Type Certificate previously held by Construcciones Aeronáuticas, S.A.) Model CN-235, CN-235-100, CN- 235-200, and CN-235-300 airplanes.
SUBJECT: Airworthiness Directive 2013-02-12
ACTION: Final Rule

SUMMARY:  This AD was prompted by reports of incorrect electrical polarity connections on engine fire extinguishing discharge cartridges. This AD requires a one-time inspection to identify the correct polarity for each pair of electrical connectors on each engine fire extinguisher cartridge, and repair if necessary.

The FAA is issuing this AD to detect and correct incorrect polarity connections, which could prevent the actuation of the discharge cartridge in case of automatic fire detection or manual initiation during a potential engine fire, and could result in damage to the airplane and injury to passengers.

DATES: This AD becomes effective March 8, 2013.
