Unsafe condition
This AD was prompted by several reports of a burning smell and/or smoke in the cockpit during cruise phase, leading in some cases, to diversion to alternate airports. We are issuing this AD to prevent significantly increased workload for the flightcrew, which could, under some flight phases and/or circumstances, constitute an unsafe condition.
Affected ADs
This AD supersedes AD 2013-10-06, Amendment 39-17459 (78 FR 32347, May 30, 2013).
