AD 2017-18-07 Airworthiness Directives; Dassault Aviation Airplanes
Models named: FALCON 7X. Read the applicability below — it usually turns on serial or part numbers too.
Applicability*9
This AD applies to Dassault Aviation Model FALCON 7X airplanes, certificated in any category, manufacturer serial numbers 15 through 89 inclusive, 92 through 94 inclusive, 97 through 101 inclusive, 105, and 106.
Compliance
Comply with this AD within the compliance times specified, unless already done.
Required actions
Before exceeding 99 months or 4,100 flight cycles, whichever occurs first, since the date of issuance of the original certificate of airworthiness or the date of issuance of the original export certificate of airworthiness, modify the airplane by replacing certain MGPL-type rivets installed on the flight deck skin panel with solid type-rivets, in accordance with the Accomplishment Instructions of Dassault Service Bulletin 7X-176, dated February 3, 2016.
Unsafe condition
This AD was prompted by a discovery of noncompliant rivets in the flight deck upper skin. We are issuing this AD to prevent interference between the rivet shank and the flight deck mounted overhead panel when the flight deck upper skin deforms due to impact ( e.g., bird strike), which could affect the functioning of essential flight control systems and result in reduced control of the airplane.
Affected ADs
None.
