Models named: BD-500-1A10, BD-500-1A11. Read the applicability below — it usually turns on serial or part numbers too.

Applicability*9

This AD applies to all Airbus Canada Limited Partnership Model BD-500-1A10 and BD-500-1A11 airplanes, certified in any category.

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, Transport Canada AD CF-2023-15, dated March 2, 2023 (Transport Canada AD CF-2023-15).

Unsafe condition

It is possible that the surface travel checks were not done after the electrical rigging of the ailerons, the elevators, and the rudder. If this occurs, it is possible that the ailerons, the elevators, and the rudder will not be able to reach their maximum travel or return to their neutral position. The FAA is issuing this AD to ensure accurate rigging of the aircraft primary flight control surfaces by adding physical travel and centering checks of primary flight control surfaces. The unsafe condition, if not addressed, could result in undetected inaccurate positioning of the primary flight control surfaces, which in combination with an additional failure or extreme maneuvers, can lead to runway excursion or structure ultimate load exceedance.

Affected ADs

None.
