Makes named: pacific aerospace. Models named: 750XL. Read the applicability below — it usually turns on serial or part numbers too.
Applicability*9
This AD applies to Pacific Aerospace Limited Model 750XL airplanes, all serial numbers through 215, certificated in any category.
Compliance
Unless already done, do the following actions in paragraphs (f)(1) and (2) of this AD: (1) Within the next 150 hours time-in-service after March 28, 2019 (the effective date of this AD) or within the next 12 months after March 28, 2019 (the effective date of this AD), whichever occurs later, inspect the elevator bellcrank pivot joint to determine the length and the part number (P/N) of the bolt installed. Do the inspection using the Inspection Instructions, steps 1 through 3, in Pacific Aerospace Service Bulletin PACSB/XL/097, Issue 1, dated March 12, 2018. (2) If you determine bolt, P/N AN4-20, is installed during the inspection required in paragraph (f)(1) of this AD, before further flight, take all necessary corrective actions using the Accomplishment Instructions in Pacific Aerospace Service Bulletin PACSB/XL/097, Issue 1, dated March 12, 2018.
Required actions
The following provisions also apply to this AD: (1) Alternative Methods of Compliance (AMOCs): The Manager, Small Airplane Standards Branch, FAA, has the authority to approve AMOCs for this AD, if requested using the procedures found in 14 CFR 39.19. Send information to ATTN: Mike Kiesov, Aerospace Engineer, FAA, Small Airplane Standards Branch, 901 Locust, Room 301, Kansas City, Missouri 64106; telephone: (816) 329-4144; fax: (816) 329-4090; email: mike.kiesov@faa.gov. Before using any approved AMOC on any airplane to which the AMOC applies, notify your appropriate principal inspector (PI) in the FAA Flight Standards District Office (FSDO), or lacking a PI, your local FSDO. (2) Contacting the Manufacturer: For any requirement in this AD to obtain corrective actions from a manufacturer, the action must instead be accomplished using a method approved by the Manager, Small Airplane Standards Branch, FAA; or the Civil Aviation Authority of New Zealand (CAA).
Unsafe condition
This AD was prompted by mandatory continuing airworthiness information (MCAI) originated by an aviation authority of another country to identify and correct an unsafe condition on an aviation product. We are issuing this AD to prevent damage from the threads of the bolt on the internal bore of the cross tube hinge plate, which could result in reduced control.
Affected ADs
None.
