The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) is proposing a new airworthiness directive (AD) for certain Bombardier airplane models, including all CL-600-1A11, CL-600-2A12, and some CL-600-2B16 airplanes. This move is due to the need for stricter airworthiness limitations to enhance safety. The proposal would require updates to existing maintenance or inspection programs to incorporate these new or more restrictive limitations, aiming to address safety concerns and prevent potential issues with these aircraft. The FAA is inviting public comments on this proposal, with the deadline for comments set as May 27, 2025.
