FAA Proposes New Airworthiness Directive for MD Helicopters Model 600N Helicopters

The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) proposes a new airworthiness directive (AD) for MD Helicopters, Inc. Model 600N helicopters, requiring the modification of the fuselage aft section within 24 months to strengthen the tailboom attachment fittings and upper longerons. The goal is to prevent failure of the tailboom attachment fittings, separation of the tailboom from the helicopter, and subsequent loss of control.
