Airworthiness Directives; Fokker Model F28 Mark 0070 and Mark 0100 Series Airplanes

Resumo

This document proposes the adoption of a new airworthiness directive (AD) that is applicable to certain Fokker Model F28 Mark 0070 and Mark 0100 series airplanes. This proposal would require replacement of the operating handles of the overwing emergency exits with improved handles that have self-illumination. This proposal is prompted by issuance of mandatory continuing airworthiness information by a foreign civil airworthiness authority. The actions specified by the proposed AD are intended to ensure that the operating handles of the overwing emergency exits are clearly visible during an emergency evacuation.
