FAA Proposes New Airworthiness Directive for Fokker F28 Aircraft

Summary

The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) proposes a new airworthiness directive (AD) for Fokker Model F28 Mark 0070 and Mark 0100 series airplanes, requiring a one-time inspection to detect cracking of the brake torque tube lever and corrective action if necessary. The proposal aims to prevent brake failure, which could lead to reduced directional control during landing.
