EASA AD 2019-0132
SUPERSEDED BY EASA AD 2020-0115
Summary
EASA Airworthiness Directive 2019-0132 is an airworthiness directive issued by the European Union Aviation Safety Agency affecting all Dassault Aviation Mystère-Falcon 900 aeroplanes. It mandates compliance with updated airworthiness limitations published in the Dassault Mystère-Falcon 900 Aircraft Maintenance Manual Chapter 5-40, Revision 24. This directive ensures continued airworthiness by enforcing maintenance tasks and life limits for components.
What Changed
This directive supersedes EASA AD 2018-0027 and introduces new and/or more restrictive maintenance tasks and life limits as defined in the latest revision of the airworthiness limitations section. It requires operators to replace components before exceeding life limits and to perform maintenance tasks within specified thresholds and intervals. Additionally, it mandates updating the approved Aircraft Maintenance Programme to incorporate these changes.
Why It Matters
Compliance with EASA Airworthiness Directive 2019-0132 is critical for maintaining the safety and airworthiness of Mystère-Falcon 900 aircraft. Operators, maintenance organizations, and compliance teams must ensure that updated maintenance tasks and life limits are followed to prevent unsafe conditions. Failure to comply could lead to unsafe situations and regulatory non-compliance, impacting aircraft operation and certification.
What To Do
Operators must replace components before exceeding their life limits and perform all applicable maintenance tasks within specified intervals starting from 25 June 2019. They must revise the approved Aircraft Maintenance Programme within 12 months of the effective date to include the updated airworthiness limitations. In case of discrepancies found during maintenance, corrective actions must be taken within the specified compliance times or before the next flight if no time is given.
