Resumo da Diretiva

PT-BRTradução automática

A FAA está substituindo a Diretiva de Aeronavegabilidade (DA) 2025-11-10, que se aplicava aos cilindros de combustível da Cameron Balloons Ltd. (Cameron) equipados com certos adaptadores de válvula de alívio de pressão (VAP) em balões de ar quente. A DA 2025-11-10 exigia a verificação visual repetitiva do adaptador VAP quanto a trincas e a remoção de qualquer cilindro de combustível com adaptador VAP trincado do serviço. Desde a emissão da DA 2025-11-10 pela FAA, uma nova peça de reposição foi introduzida em serviço. Esta DA mantém os requisitos repetitivos de verificação e remoção da DA 2025-11-10 e também exige a substituição do adaptador VAP como ação terminativa das verificações repetitivas. A FAA está emitindo esta DA para resolver a condição insegura desses produtos.

ENOriginal (Federal Register)

The FAA is superseding Airworthiness Directive (AD) 2025-11- 10, which applied to Cameron Balloons Ltd. (Cameron) fuel cylinders fitted with certain pressure relief valve (PRV) adaptors on hot air balloons. AD 2025-11-10 required repetitively visually checking the PRV adaptor for cracks and removing any fuel cylinder with a cracked PRV adaptor from service. Since the FAA issued AD 2025-11-10, a new replacement part was introduced into service. This AD retains the repetitive check and removal requirements of AD 2025-11-10 and also requires replacement of the PRV adaptor as terminating action for the repetitive checks. The FAA is issuing this AD to address the unsafe condition on these products.
