AD NUMBER: 2006-07-18
MANUFACTURER: Empress
SUBJECT: Airworthiness Directive 2006-07-18
SUMMARY
: The FAA is adopting a new airworthiness directive (AD) for certain Empresa Brasilia deAeronautica S.A. (EMBRAER) Model EMB-120, -120ER, -120FC, -120QC, and -120RT airplanes.This AD requires a one-time inspection of the interior of the internal elevator torque tube of each elevator control surface for oxidation and corrosion, and corrective actions. This AD results from corrosion in torque tubes of the elevators found during scheduled maintenance. We are issuing this AD to detect and correct corrosion in the torque tubes of the elevators, which could lead to an unbalanced elevator and result in reduced controllability of the airplane.
