Makes named: pilatus. Models named: PC-12, PC-12/45, PC-12/47, PC-12/47E. Read the applicability below — it usually turns on serial or part numbers too.
Applicability*9
This AD applies to Pilatus Aircraft Ltd. Model PC-12, PC-12/45, PC-12/47, and PC-12/47E airplanes, all serial numbers, certificated in any category.
Compliance
Comply with this AD within the compliance times specified, unless already done.
Required actions
Except as specified in paragraphs (h) and (i) of this AD: Comply with all required actions and compliance times specified in, and in accordance with, European Union Aviation Safety Agency (EASA) AD 2023-0184, dated October 19, 2023 (EASA AD 2023-0184).
Unsafe condition
This AD was prompted by a revision to the airworthiness limitations section (ALS) of the existing aircraft maintenance manual (AMM) introducing new and more restrictive instructions and maintenance tasks as specified in the component limitations section, which include repetitive eddy current inspections for cracks in the main landing gear yoke fitting. The FAA is issuing this AD to address failure of certain parts, which could result in asymmetric main landing gear failure that could lead to loss of airplane control during take-off, landing, and taxiing operations.
Affected ADs
This AD replaces AD 2023-12-17, Amendment 39-22475 (88 FR 42604, July 3, 2023) (AD 2023-12-17).
