Additionally, operators must revise their approved Aircraft Maintenance Programme to incorporate the new requirements within 12 months from 2019-07-01.
Summary
EASA Airworthiness Directive 2019-0142 is an airworthiness directive issued by the European Union Aviation Safety Agency affecting all Dassault Aviation Fan Jet Falcon aeroplanes equipped with the Supplemental Structural Inspection Program (SSIP). It mandates compliance with updated maintenance tasks and life limits as specified in the Dassault Fan Jet Falcon Aircraft Maintenance Manual Chapter 5-40 Revision 10. This directive ensures continued structural integrity and airworthiness of these aircraft.
What changed
EASA Airworthiness Directive 2019-0142 supersedes the previous AD 2018-0193 and introduces new and/or more restrictive maintenance tasks and life limits in the Airworthiness Limitations Section (ALS) of the Dassault Fan Jet Falcon maintenance manual. It requires operators to incorporate these updated tasks and thresholds into their approved Aircraft Maintenance Programme within 12 months of the effective date.
Why it matters
This directive is critical for operators and maintenance organizations to maintain the structural integrity and safety of Dassault Fan Jet Falcon aircraft as they age. Compliance ensures that maintenance programs reflect the latest manufacturer-approved inspections and life limits, preventing unsafe conditions and regulatory non-compliance. It also streamlines record-keeping by allowing AMP revisions to demonstrate ongoing compliance.
