The FAA is introducing a proposed rule to implement a new airworthiness directive for Deutsche Aircraft GmbH Model 328-100 and Model 328-300 airplanes. This action is motivated by discovered cracks in the nose landing gear uplock bracket assembly, which pose a safety risk. The directive mandates an inspection of the affected parts and necessary follow-up actions as detailed in a related European Union Aviation Safety Agency directive. The FAA is seeking comments on this proposal by February 10, 2025, to ensure it addresses the potential for an unsafe condition in these aircraft.

The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) has proposed a new rule to replace an earlier directive for Deutsche Aircraft GmbH Model 328-100 and 328-300 airplanes. The new directive requires not only an initial inspection of certain parts but also ongoing, repetitive inspections due to the risk of damage that could lead to electrical problems and potential fire hazards in fuel tanks. This rule is based on updates from the European Union Aviation Safety Agency (EASA) and includes requirements for corrective actions if any damage is discovered. The FAA is accepting public comments on the proposal until February 6, 2025.
