Within 36 months after the effective date of this AD, do the actions specified in paragraphs (g)(1) and (2) of this AD, in accordance with Gulfstream GVII-G500 Customer Bulletin No. 089 or Gulfstream GVII-G600 Customer Bulletin No. 058, both dated November 28, 2023, as applicable. (1) Do borescope inspections for cracking and corrosion of the interior walls of the grounding receptacle casing and do all applicable corrective actions before further flight. (2) Remove the “GROUND HERE” decal/stencil from the grounding receptacles and apply epoxy over the ground receptacle area to permanently disable the grounding receptacles.

Unsafe condition

This AD was prompted by a report of cracking in the electrical receptacles located on left and right wings of certain Gulfstream Aerospace Corporation Model GVII airplanes. The FAA is issuing this AD to address cracks and corrosion of the electrical grounding receptacles. The unsafe condition, if not addressed, could result in fuel leaking from the electrical grounding receptacles.

Affected ADs

None.
