What to do
Operators must revise their maintenance programs within three months of the effective date by incorporating the specified airworthiness limitations from the MRB 1621 Revision 14 and TR 14-1. They must adhere to the new inspection thresholds and intervals or seek approval for alternative methods of compliance from ANAC if previous modifications prevent standard inspections. All compliance actions must be recorded in the maintenance logbooks.
Summary
Brazilian Airworthiness Directive 2019-05-01 issued by the Agência Nacional de Aviação Civil (ANAC) applies to Embraer S.A. ERJ 170 series airplanes with specific manufacturer serial numbers. This directive mandates revisions to the maintenance and inspection programs to incorporate updated airworthiness limitations and inspections to ensure structural integrity. It includes requirements for Certification Maintenance Requirements, Airworthiness Limitation Inspections, Fuel System Limitation Items, and Life Limited Items.
What changed
This directive cancels and supersedes previous ADs 2015-06-01 and 2013-01-01, introducing revised airworthiness limitations based on the latest Maintenance Review Board Report MRB 1621 Revision 14 dated September 27, 2018, including temporary revision 14-1. It updates inspection thresholds and intervals to detect and correct fatigue cracking in principal structural elements of the affected Embraer ERJ 170 models.
Why it matters
Compliance with this AD is critical for operators and maintenance organizations to prevent structural fatigue failures that could compromise aircraft safety. It ensures that maintenance programs are aligned with the latest safety standards and regulatory requirements, helping maintain airworthiness and regulatory compliance. Failure to comply may result in grounding of aircraft or regulatory penalties.
