FAA Proposes Airworthiness Directive for British Aerospace Model BAe 146 and Avro 146-RJ Series Airplanes

The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) has proposed a new airworthiness directive requiring modifications to the left and right elevators and replacement of the elevator spring on British Aerospace Model BAe 146 and Avro 146-RJ series airplanes to address reports of water and ice accumulation at the trailing edge of the elevators, which can cause unbalanced and oscillating elevators.
