Compliance
Comply with this AD within the compliance times specified, unless already done.
Required actions
Within 30 days after the effective date of this AD, revise the normal procedures and limitations sections of the AFM, as applicable, to include new yaw damper procedures, in accordance with using a method approved by the Manager, International Branch, ANM-116, Transport Airplane Directorate, FAA.
Unsafe condition
This AD was prompted by a report that during a test flight, it was found that the yaw damper on the takeoff roll can increase the Minimum Control Speed on Ground (Vmcg). We are issuing this AD to ensure that the flightcrew has procedures to set the yaw damper to “off” before takeoff, which, if activated, could result in reduced control of the airplane if one engine were to fail during takeoff.
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.
