What to do
Affected operators and maintenance organizations should implement repetitive detailed visual inspections and mandatory replacement of the upper and lower 8 mm attachment bolts of the stabilizer trimming mechanism attachment bracket Part Number 8-28-Ц-ОСТ31138-80 as required by EASA. They should disregard the Russian FATA ADs 2020-FATA-01020A-11 and 2021-FATA-01020A-02. For further information, stakeholders can contact EASA's Safety Information Section.
Summary
The document titled NOT ADOPTED - EASA DECISION ATTACHED is an EASA decision regarding the non-adoption of Russian Federation Federal Air Transport Agency (FATA) Airworthiness Directives AD 2020-FATA-01020A-11 and AD 2021-FATA-01020A-02. These directives concern repetitive inspections and maintenance of the stabilizer trimming mechanism attachment bracket with Part Number 8-28-Ц-ОСТ31138-80. EASA decided not to adopt these FATA ADs and instead requires mandatory repetitive detailed visual inspections and replacement of the affected parts to ensure airworthiness.
What changed
EASA decided not to adopt the Russian FATA ADs 2020-FATA-01020A-11 and 2021-FATA-01020A-02. Instead of following the FATA ADs, which included optional terminating solutions and cancellation of inspections, EASA mandates repetitive detailed visual inspections and mandatory replacement of the stabilizer trimming mechanism attachment bracket bolts as a terminating solution.
Why it matters
This decision impacts aviation professionals by clarifying the required maintenance actions to ensure the safety and airworthiness of aircraft using the specified stabilizer trimming mechanism attachment bracket. Operators and maintenance organizations must follow EASA's more stringent inspection and replacement requirements rather than the Russian FATA ADs to remain compliant and maintain aircraft safety.
