AD: Airbus Helicopters (Previously Eurocopter France)

AD NUMBER: 2015-26-04

PRODUCT: Eurocopter France (now Airbus Helicopters) Model EC120B helicopters.

ACTION: Final Rule

SUMMARY: : The FAA is superseding airworthiness directive (AD) 2002-13-11 for the product listed above.

AD 2002-13-11 required installing front and side covers on the cabin floor to protect the yaw control at both the pilot and co-pilot stations. Since we issued AD 2002-13-11, we have determined that the required actions should apply only to the cabin's right-hand pilot station.

This AD retains the requirements of AD 2002-13-11 but for only the pilot station.

These actions are intended to prevent an object from sliding between the canopy and the cabin floor, loss of yaw control, and subsequent loss of helicopter control.

DATES: This AD is effective February 4, 2016.

FMI: AD
