  • Type:Proposed Rule
    Citation:86 FR 11180
    Reading Time:about 14 minutes

    The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) has proposed a new airworthiness directive (AD) targeting Bombardier, Inc., Model BD-700-1A10 and BD-700-1A11 airplanes. This proposal was prompted by issues with sand and corrosion affecting elevator torque tube bearings, which could potentially hinder airplane pitch control. The AD mandates regular inspections, functional tests, and possible replacements of these parts to avert risks to flight safety. Comments on this proposed directive are due by April 12, 2021.

    Simple Explanation

    The FAA wants to make sure some planes are safe, so they are telling people to check certain parts often because sand and rust might make them work poorly, like if a toy robot's arms got stuck. They are also asking people to say what they think about this plan by April 12, 2021.

  • Type:Proposed Rule
    Citation:90 FR 578
    Reading Time:about 12 minutes

    The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) has proposed a new rule regarding Bombardier, Inc., Model BD-700-1A10 and BD-700-1A11 airplanes due to reports of hydraulic pressure hoses chafing against the aircraft structure, which could cause hydraulic system failures. The rule requires inspections and corrective actions to prevent this issue, and comments on the proposal are open until February 20, 2025. The rule aims to ensure the continued safety of the aircraft by preventing potential hydraulic system leaks and failures that could impact the airplane's operational capabilities.

    Simple Explanation

    The FAA wants to make sure certain airplanes are safe by checking some hoses to make sure they aren't rubbing too much, which could make them break. People have until February 20, 2025, to give their thoughts about this plan.

  • Type:Proposed Rule
    Citation:90 FR 13709
    Reading Time:about 20 minutes

    The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) has proposed a new airworthiness directive (AD) for certain Bombardier airplane models. This action is due to incorrect data found in the airplane flight manual (AFM) related to slat-flap conditions, which could increase the workload for flight crews and potentially lead to unsafe situations. The proposed AD requires updating the AFM with corrected information and seeks to maintain safety standards. The FAA is inviting comments on this proposal by May 12, 2025.

    Simple Explanation

    The government wants to make some fixes to a rulebook for certain airplanes because there was a mistake that could make flying tricky. They are asking people to share their thoughts or ideas about these changes by May next year.
