Resumo da Diretiva
A FAA está substituindo a Diretiva de Aeronavegabilidade (DA) 2022-02-02, que se aplicava a certos helicópteros Bell Textron Inc. (certificado de tipo anteriormente mantido pela Bell Helicopter Textron Inc.) Modelos 204B, 205A, 205A-1, 205B, 210 e 212 com certo pino de correia do rotor principal (pino) instalado. A DA 2022-02-02 exigia a retirada de certos pinos externos de serviço e proibia sua instalação em qualquer helicóptero. Esta DA expande a aplicabilidade para todos os pinos afetados, independentemente de serem externos ou internos. Esta DA também exige a inspeção do pino removido quanto a qualquer deformação e, se deformado, a retirada do ajuste de correia correspondente (ajuste) de serviço. Esta DA foi motivada pela descoberta de que a DA 2022-02-02 inadvertidamente limitou sua aplicabilidade apenas aos pinos externos quando, na verdade, todos os pinos estão sujeitos à condição insegura, e pela determinação de que um pino deformado pode ter danificado o ajuste. A FAA está emitindo esta DA para abordar a condição insegura nestes produtos.
The FAA is superseding Airworthiness Directive (AD) 2022-02-02 which applied to certain Bell Textron Inc. (type certificate previously held by Bell Helicopter Textron Inc.) Model 204B, 205A, 205A-1, 205B, 210, and 212 helicopters with a certain main rotor hub strap pin (pin) installed. AD 2022-02-02 required removing certain outboard pins from service and prohibited installing them on any helicopter. This AD expands the applicability to all affected pins, regardless if they are outboard or inboard. This AD also requires inspecting the removed pin for any deformation and if it is deformed, removing the mating strap fitting (fitting) from service. This AD was prompted by the discovery that AD 2022-02-02 inadvertently limited its applicability to only outboard pins when, in fact, all pins are subject to the unsafe condition and the determination that a deformed pin may have damaged the fitting. The FAA is issuing this AD to address the unsafe condition on these products.Texto Completo da Diretiva
