Airworthiness Directives; Bombardier, Inc., Airplanes

FAA / Federal Register · 2022-22329

The FAA is adopting a new airworthiness directive (AD) for certain Bombardier, Inc., Model BD-700-2A12 airplanes. This AD was prompted by reports of insufficient clearance between the surrounding structure/skin of the aircraft and select bleed air ducts that supply the wing ice protection system (WIPS) in the rear fuselage. This AD requires inspecting the bleed air duct and surrounding structure for minimum clearance and damage, and applicable corrective actions. The FAA is issuing this AD to address the unsafe condition on these products.
