Models named: BO-105A, BO-105C, BO-105S, BO-105LS A-3. Read the applicability below — it usually turns on serial or part numbers too.

Applicability*9

This AD applies to Airbus Helicopters Deutschland GmbH Model BO-105A, BO-105C, BO-105S, and BO-105LS A-3 helicopters, certificated in any category, equipped with a tension torsion strap (TT-strap) as identified in European Aviation Safety Agency (now European Union Aviation Safety Agency) (EASA) AD 2019-0024, dated February 4, 2019 (EASA AD 2019-0024).

Compliance

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

Required actions

Except as specified in paragraph (h) of this AD: Comply with all required actions and compliance times specified in, and in accordance with, EASA AD 2019-0024.

Unsafe condition

This AD was prompted by the FAA's determination that aging of the elastomeric material in a TT-strap could affect the structural characteristics of the TT-strap. The FAA is issuing this AD to address aging of the elastomeric material in a TT-strap, which could lead to premature failure of a TT-strap, resulting in loss of control of the helicopter.

Affected ADs

This AD affects AD 2016-25-14, Amendment 39-18740 (81 FR 94944, December 27, 2016) (AD 2016-25-14).
