Airworthiness Directives; Dornier Model 328-100 Series Airplanes

This amendment adopts a new airworthiness directive (AD), applicable to certain Dornier Model 328-100 series airplanes, that requires removal of the acoustic damping foils at the skin behind the overhead switch panel. This amendment is prompted by a report of debonding of the edges of the acoustic damping foils. The actions specified by this AD are intended to prevent such debonding, which could result in short circuiting of parts of the overhead switch panel due to contact with loose edges of the foils, and consequent smoke and/ or fire in the cockpit.
