Required actions

Unsafe condition
This AD was prompted by reports of a crack on the front upper hoist attachment fitting. The FAA is issuing this AD to detect and address this unsafe condition, which could affect the structural integrity of a hoist attachment fitting, possibly leading to an in-flight detachment of the hoist support, and consequent damage to the helicopter or injury to a person being lifted.
Affected ADs
None.
