Unsafe condition
This AD was prompted by the issuance of more restrictive maintenance requirements and/or airworthiness limitations by the manufacturer. We are issuing this AD to prevent the potential of ignition sources inside fuel tanks, which, in combination with flammable fuel vapors caused by latent failures, alterations, repairs, or maintenance actions, could result in fuel tank explosions and consequent loss of the airplane.
Affected ADs
This AD replaces AD 2007-21-14 R1, Amendment 39-16061 (74 FR 55123, October 27, 2009) (“AD 2007-21-14 R1”).
