Airworthiness Directives; Fokker Model F28 Mark 0100 Series Airplanes

摘要

This amendment adopts a new airworthiness directive (AD), applicable to certain Fokker Model F28 Mark 0100 series airplanes, that requires inspections to detect cracks of certain demountable flange (inboard) wheel subassemblies and of the bolt bosses on certain demountable flange (outboard) wheel subassemblies, and modification or replacement of the wheel subassemblies. This amendment is prompted by reports of cracks and broken spokes found on certain main wheel assemblies of these airplanes. The actions specified by this AD are intended to prevent loss of a main wheel assembly during takeoff or landing.
