Navigation - Angle of Attack Sensors - Inspection
Federal Register Volume 85, Number 96 (May 18, 2020) is a final rule airworthiness directive issued by the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) addressing certain Boeing Model 727 series airplanes, including 727, 727C, 727-100, 727-100C, 727-200, and 727-200F. The directive targets angle of attack (AOA) sensors that may ice over, causing immobilization of the sensor vanes and resulting in nuisance stick shaker activation during climb to cruise speed.
