Compliance
Comply with this AD within the compliance times specified, unless already done.
Required actions
(1) Check the airplane logbook to determine if all four of the original engine mounting brackets have been replaced. Do the logbook check at the following compliance time, as applicable. The owner/operator holding at least a private pilot certificate as authorized by section 43.7 may do this action. (i) For airplanes previously affected by AD 2008-15-06: Within the next 30 days after September 2, 2008 (the effective date retained from AD 2008-15-06). (ii) For the new airplane affected by this AD: Within the next 30 days after August 11, 2016 (the effective date of this AD). (2) If you can positively determine that all four of the original engine mounting brackets have been replaced, no further action is required. Make an entry into the airplane logbook showing compliance with this portion of the AD in accordance with 14 CFR 43.9. The owner/operator holding at least a private pilot certificate as authorized by section 43.7 may do this action. (3) If you cannot positively determine that all four of the original engine mounting brackets have been replaced, inspect each of the upper and lower engine mounting brackets on both the left and right sides for cracks following Cessna Single Engine Service Bulletin SEB07-2, Revision 2, dated June 18, 2007. Do the inspections at the following compliance times, as applicable. (i) For airplanes previous affected by AD 2008-15-06: Initially inspect within the next 12 months after September 2, 2008 (the effective date retained from AD 2008-15-06). If no cracks are found, repetitively inspect thereafter at intervals not to exceed 500 hours time-in-service (TIS) until all four of the original engine mounting brackets are replaced. (ii) For the new airplane affected by this AD: Initially inspect within the next 12 months after August 11, 2016 (the effective date of this AD). If no cracks are found, repetitively inspect thereafter at intervals not to exceed 500 hours TIS until all four of the original engine mounting brackets are replaced.
Unsafe condition
This AD was prompted by the determination that one airplane needs to be added and another airplane needs to be removed from the Applicability section. We are issuing this AD to detect and correct cracks in the engine mounting brackets, which could result in failure of the engine mounting bracket. This failure could lead to the engine detaching from the firewall.
Affected ADs
This AD replaces AD 2008-15-06, Amendment 39-15618 (73 FR 43845, July 29, 2008) (“AD 2008-15-06”).
