The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) is proposing an airworthiness directive (AD) to supersede an existing directive for Schweizer Aircraft Corporation and Hughes Helicopters, Inc. Model 269A, 269A-1, 269B, and TH-55A helicopters, requiring initial and repetitive inspections of the main rotor thrust bearing to prevent failure and loss of control.
