Resumo da Diretiva

PT-BRTradução automática

A FAA está adotando uma nova diretiva de aeronavegabilidade (DA) para certos helicópteros Leonardo S.p.A. Modelo A109E, A109S e AW109SP. Esta DA foi motivada por relatórios de instalação incorreta dos cabos do motor (MTR) e das trançadas de ligação conectadas às garrafas de extintor de incêndio do motor. Esta DA exige a inspeção da instalação dos cabos e das trançadas de ligação e, dependendo dos resultados, a execução de ações corretivas, conforme especificado em uma DA da Agência Europeia de Segurança da Aviação (EASA), que é incorporada por referência. A FAA está emitindo esta DA para corrigir a condição insegura nestes produtos.
