Models named: F.28 Mark 1000, 2000, 3000, 4000. Read the applicability below — it usually turns on serial or part numbers too.

Applicability*9

This AD applies to Fokker Services B.V. Model F.28 Mark 1000, 2000, 3000, and 4000 airplanes, certificated in any category, all serial numbers.

Compliance

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

Required actions

Within 24 months after the effective date of this AD, install fuses in the wiring of the solenoid of the level control pilot valve, the reed switch of the main tank overflow valve, the level float switch of the collector tank, and the solenoid of the main tank fueling shut-off valve, as applicable, in accordance with the Accomplishment Instructions of Fokker F28 Appendix Service Bulletin SBF28-28-056/APP01, dated July 15, 2014, and Fokker Proforma Service Bulletin SBF28-28-056, dated January 9, 2014.

Unsafe condition

This AD was prompted by a design review that revealed a hot spot may develop in the main fuel tank under certain failure conditions of the solenoid of the level control pilot valve, the reed switch of the main tank overflow valve, the level float switch of the collector tank, or the solenoid of the main tank fueling shut-off valve. We are issuing this AD to prevent an ignition source in the main fuel tank vapor space, which could result in a fuel tank explosion and consequent loss of the airplane.

Affected ADs

This AD affects AD 2011-17-03, Amendment 39-16767 (76 FR 50115, August 12, 2011) (“AD 2011-17-03”); and AD 2011-21-01, Amendment 39-16824 (76 FR 63156, October 12, 2011) (“AD 2011-21-01”).
