  • 2025-03456 — Airworthiness Directives; Bombardier, Inc., Airplanes
    Type:Rule
    Citation:90 FR 11118
    Reading Time:about 8 minutes

    The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) has issued a new airworthiness directive (AD) for Bombardier, Inc., Model BD-700-2A12 airplanes. This directive was prompted by the risk that a partial loss of thrust during specific navigation approaches could lead to unintended descents. To address this, the directive mandates an update to the airplane flight manual to include revised data for safe navigation under certain conditions related to weight, altitude, and temperature. The rule aims to enhance flight safety by updating guidance and is effective April 8, 2025.

    Simple Explanation

    The FAA has made a new rule for certain Bombardier airplanes to make sure they fly safely by updating their instruction book, especially in tricky weather and weight situations. This will help pilots keep the airplane on the right path when one engine isn't working well.

  • 2024-30229 — Airworthiness Directives; Bombardier, Inc., Airplanes
    Type:Rule
    Citation:89 FR 103631
    Reading Time:about 9 minutes

    The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) has issued a new rule requiring certain Bombardier Model BD-700-2A12 airplanes to be inspected due to issues with the pivot door pressure seals on the thrust reverser fixed structure. These seals have been reported as loose or missing, which could lead to engine thrust loss and affect the plane's performance, especially if one engine fails. The rule mandates inspecting and fixing these seals and performing a functional test on the thrust reversers by January 23, 2025. The aim is to ensure aviation safety by addressing this potentially unsafe condition.

    Simple Explanation

    The government is telling airplane workers to make sure the rubber parts on the wings of some Bombardier planes are not loose or missing, so the planes fly safely and don't lose power. They have to check and fix these parts by January 23, 2025.
