Compliance
Comply with this AD within the compliance times specified, unless already done.
Required actions
Before the accumulation of 26,000 total flight cycles or within 3 months after the effective date of this AD, whichever occurs later: Perform a detailed or eddy current inspection for cracking around the aft tapered holes of both pilot-side rudder pedal tubes, and for damage of the rudder pedal tubes in locations other than around the aft tapered holes, in accordance with Part A of the Accomplishment Instructions of Bombardier Service Bulletin 670BA-27-065, including Appendix A, dated November 15, 2013. Repeat the inspection thereafter at the applicable intervals specified in paragraph (g)(1) or (g)(2) of this AD, until the terminating action specified in paragraph (i) of this AD is done. (1) If the most recent inspection was a detailed inspection: Within 750 flight cycles after doing the detailed inspection. (2) If the most recent inspection was an eddy current inspection: Within 1,250 flight cycles after doing the eddy current inspection.
Unsafe condition
This AD was prompted by two in-service reports of fracture of the rudder pedal tubes installed on the pilot-side rudder bar assembly. We are issuing this AD to detect and correct cracked and damaged pilot-side rudder pedal tubes, which could result in loss of function of the pilot's rudder pedal during flight, takeoff, or landing, and could result in reduced controllability of the airplane.
Affected ADs
None.

You just looked this one up by hand
TrackAD holds all 12,278 of them and matches them against the aircraft you actually look after — airframe, engine, propeller and appliances in one pass — then works out what falls due and when.
- Bring your existing list in from a spreadsheet Paste the rows straight out of Excel. Headers like C/W Date and N/A are read for you.
- A copy that works when this does not One file. No internet, no login, no this software running. For the morning something has to be produced and the computer is not cooperating.
- $5 a month, or $50 a year Up to 50 aircraft on either.
