Airworthiness Directives; British Aerospace Model Avro 146-RJ70A, -RJ85A, and -RJ100A Airplanes

概要

This amendment adopts a new airworthiness directive (AD), applicable to certain British Aerospace Model Avro 146-RJ70A, -RJ85A, and -RJ100A airplanes, that requires repetitive inspections for cracking of fuselage frame 29, and repair, if necessary. This amendment is prompted by results of fatigue testing, which revealed fatigue cracking in the web and inboard flange of frame 29. The actions specified by this AD are intended to prevent reduced structural integrity of the fuselage due to fatigue cracking in frame 29.
