Models named: A109S, AW109SP. Read the applicability below — it usually turns on serial or part numbers too.

Applicability*9

This AD applies to Leonardo S.p.a. Model A109S and AW109SP helicopters, certificated in any category, as identified in European Union Aviation Safety Agency (EASA) AD 2021-0065, dated March 8, 2021 (EASA AD 2021-0065).

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 2021-0065.

Unsafe condition

This AD was prompted by the discovery that rubber protection of certain electrical wiring had not been installed in the baggage avionics bay during production. The FAA is issuing this AD to prevent chafing of electrical wiring. The unsafe condition, if not addressed, could result in fire ignition and smoke in the baggage compartment and subsequent loss of control of the helicopter.

Affected ADs

None.
