Résumé
This amendment adopts a new airworthiness directive (AD), applicable to certain Fokker Model F.28 Mark 1000, 2000, 3000, and 4000 series airplanes, that requires repetitive eddy current inspections to detect cracks in the upper girder of the two main landing gear (MLG) brackets; and repair of a cracked bracket followed by repetitive inspections, or replacement of a cracked MLG bracket with an improved bracket, as applicable. This AD also provides for an optional terminating action for certain requirements of this AD. The actions specified by this AD are intended to detect and correct cracks in the upper girder of the MLG bracket, which could progress into the vertical stiffeners of the MLG bracket and result in reduced structural integrity of the landing gear. This action is intended to address the identified unsafe condition.
