AD 2020-04-13 Airworthiness Directives; Daher Aircraft Design, LLC (Type Certificate Previously Held by Quest Aircraft Design, LLC) Airplanes
Makes named: quest, daher. Models named: KODIAK 100. Read the applicability below — it usually turns on serial or part numbers too.
Applicability*9
This AD applies to Quest Aircraft Design, LLC (type certificate data sheet currently held by Daher Aircraft Design, LLC) Model KODIAK 100 airplanes, serial numbers 100-0001 through 100-0273, certificated in any category.
Compliance
Comply with this AD within the compliance times specified, unless already done.
Required actions
(1) Before further flight after April 1, 2020 (the effective date of this AD), revise the POH/AFM for your airplane by removing the “Obstacle Landing Distance” table (2 pages) and replacing it with Table 5-19, Obstacle Landing Distance, pages 5_68 and 5_69, Section 5, Performance, from Quest Aircraft Kodiak 100 Series Aircraft, Pilot's Operating Handbook and FAA Approved Airplane Flight Manual (Document No: AM901.0), Revision 22, dated April 10, 2019. Note 1 to paragraph (g)(1) of this AD: The Obstacle Landing Distance table may be located either in the Performance section (Section 5) of the POH/AFM or in supplement 5 to the POH/AFM, depending on the revision level of your POH/AFM. (2) The actions required by paragraphs (g)(1) of this AD may be performed by the owner/operator (pilot) holding at least a private pilot certificate and must be entered into the aircraft records showing compliance with this AD in accordance with 14 CFR 43.9(a)(1) through (4) and 91.417(a)(2)(v). The record must be maintained as required by 14 CFR 91.417, 121.380, or 135.439.
Unsafe condition
This AD was prompted by incorrect low weight landing distances in the “Obstacle Landing Distance” table, located either in the performance section of the pilot's operating handbook and FAA approved airplane flight manual (POH/AFM) or in supplement 5 to the POH/AFM. The FAA is issuing this AD to prevent pilots from using incorrect obstacle landing distance performance charts for weights below maximum gross weight. The unsafe condition, if not addressed, could result in pilots miscalculating the required landing distance, which could lead to a runway overrun.
Affected ADs
None.

You just looked this one up by hand
TrackAD holds all 12,278 of them and matches them against the aircraft you actually look after — airframe, engine, propeller and appliances in one pass — then works out what falls due and when.
- Bring your existing list in from a spreadsheet Paste the rows straight out of Excel. Headers like C/W Date and N/A are read for you.
- A copy that works when this does not One file. No internet, no login, no this software running. For the morning something has to be produced and the computer is not cooperating.
- $5 a month, or $50 a year Up to 50 aircraft on either.
