What to do
Operators must replace components before exceeding life limits and perform all maintenance tasks within specified thresholds as per the ALS Revision 11 starting from 3 April 2023. They must revise their approved Aircraft Maintenance Programme within 12 months of the effective date to incorporate the new limitations and tasks. Any discrepancies found during maintenance must be corrected within specified times or before the next flight, and compliance should be recorded through AMP revision.
Summary
EASA Airworthiness Directive 2023-0063 is an airworthiness directive issued by the European Union Aviation Safety Agency affecting Dassault Aviation Falcon 7X aeroplanes, including those modified with Dassault modification M1000 (Falcon 8X). It mandates compliance with updated airworthiness limitations and maintenance tasks as specified in the Dassault Falcon 7X Aircraft Maintenance Manual, Airworthiness Limitations Section, Revision 11. The directive ensures continued airworthiness by enforcing replacement of life-limited parts and adherence to maintenance intervals.
What changed
EASA Airworthiness Directive 2023-0063 supersedes the previous AD 2022-0142 and introduces new and/or more restrictive maintenance tasks and life limits for the Falcon 7X and Falcon 8X aircraft. It requires operators to update their Aircraft Maintenance Programme to incorporate the latest airworthiness limitations from Revision 11 of the Dassault Falcon 7X AMM ALS. The directive also clarifies corrective actions and recording procedures for compliance.
Why it matters
This directive is critical for aviation professionals as it mandates updated maintenance requirements that directly impact the safety and airworthiness of Falcon 7X and Falcon 8X aircraft. Operators and maintenance organizations must comply to avoid unsafe conditions and regulatory non-compliance. The updated tasks and life limits ensure that aircraft components are maintained within safe operational parameters, reducing the risk of in-service failures.
