    The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) has issued a final rule regarding Embraer S.A. Model ERJ 190-400 airplanes, replacing a previous directive due to the need for updated compliance requirements. The new rule addresses an unsafe condition caused by unexpected wear on the wing hinge bearing assembly of the ailerons, which could lead to excessive backlash and limit cycle oscillation, reducing airplane controllability. The FAA's action follows a related directive from the Agência Nacional de Aviação Civil (ANAC) in Brazil, and comments on the rule are being accepted until February 28, 2025. This rule is effective from January 29, 2025.

    Simple Explanation

    The FAA made a new rule to make sure some Embraer airplanes are safe by checking and fixing parts that help control where the plane goes. They got advice from a group in Brazil, and people can share their thoughts about it until February 28, 2025.

    The FAA has issued a new rule that affects all Embraer S.A. Model ERJ 190-300 and ERJ 190-400 airplanes due to a failure in the MAU 3B, which can result in brake faults and loss of normal braking. To fix this, the flight manual must be updated to include new procedures. This directive will be effective from April 14, 2025, and is based on a similar measure by Brazil's aviation authority. The FAA seeks public comments by May 12, 2025, but has already taken action to address this safety issue.

    Simple Explanation

    The government found a problem in some Embraer airplanes where the brakes might not work right because a part inside failed. They're telling people who fly these planes to update their instruction book so they know what to do if this happens, and they're asking people to share their thoughts about these changes by a certain date.
