Models named: CN-235, CN-235-100, -200. Read the applicability below — it usually turns on serial or part numbers too.

Applicability*9

This AD applies to Airbus Defense and Space S.A. (formerly known as Construcciones Aeronauticas, S.A.) Model CN-235 airplanes, serial numbers C-001 through C-015 inclusive; and Model CN-235-100 and -200 airplanes, serial numbers C-016 through C-073 inclusive; certificated in any category.

Compliance

Comply with this AD within the compliance times specified, unless already done.

Required actions

This paragraph restates the requirements of paragraph (a) of AD 2001-12-18. Within 15 days after July 25, 2001 (the effective date of AD 2001-12-18): Rig the power lever and condition lever control stops, in accordance with CASA COM 235-140, Revision 01, dated March 21, 2000.

Unsafe condition

This AD was prompted by reports of new occurrences of cable disruption on a certain part number; the disruption is caused by microcracks along the cable surface. We are issuing this AD to prevent fatigue of the engine control cables, leading to breakage of the cables, which could result in reduced controllability of the airplane.

Affected ADs

This AD replaces AD 2001-12-18, Amendment 39-12274 (66 FR 33014, June 20, 2001) (“AD 2001-12-18”).
