Compliance
Required as indicated, unless accomplished previously. To prevent failure of the spoiler actuator, which could result in the spoiler panel floating and inducing an uncommanded roll of the airplane, accomplish the following: Inspection and Replacement (a) Within 150 flight hours after the effective date of this AD, perform a visual inspection to determine the serial number of the spoiler actuators, in accordance with Learjet Service Bulletins SB 31-27-19, dated December 14, 1998 (for Model 31 and 31A airplanes); SB 35-27-36, dated December 14, 1998 (for Model 35 and 35A airplanes); or SB 60-27-21, dated December 14, 1998 (for Model 60 airplanes); as applicable. (1) If the serial number is not listed in the applicable service bulletin, no further action is required by this AD. (2) If the serial number is listed in the applicable service bulletin, prior to further flight, replace the spoiler actuators with new actuators in accordance with the Accomplishment Instructions of the applicable service bulletin. Alternative Methods of Compliance (b) An alternative method of compliance or adjustment of the compliance time that provides an acceptable level of safety may be used if approved by the Manager, Wichita Aircraft Certification Office (ACO), FAA, Small Airplane Directorate. Operators shall submit their requests through an appropriate FAA Principal Maintenance Inspector, who may add comments and then send it to the Manager, Wichita ACO. Note 2: Information concerning the existence of approved alternative methods of compliance with this AD, if any, may be obtained from the Wichita ACO. Special Flight Permits (c) Special flight permits may be issued in accordance with Secs. 21.197 and 21.199 of the Federal Aviation Regulations (14 CFR 21.197 and 21.199) to operate the airplane to a location where the requirements of this AD can be accomplished.
