What to do
Operators must amend their Transport Canada-approved maintenance schedules within 90 days of the effective date, incorporating the limitations, tasks, thresholds, and intervals specified in AWL Issue No. 017.00. For schedules already updated to previous AWL issues, the new and more restrictive requirements must be incorporated. Use of later approved revisions of the AWL publication is permitted for compliance.
Summary
Airworthiness Directive CF-2023-54 is issued by Transport Canada and applies to Airbus Canada Limited Partnership aeroplanes, specifically models BD-500-1A10 and BD-500-1A11. This directive mandates updates to the aircraft maintenance schedules to incorporate the latest Airworthiness Limitations as defined in Issue No. 017.00 of the AWL publication. The directive ensures continued airworthiness by enforcing compliance with updated maintenance tasks and intervals.
What changed
This directive supersedes AD CF-2023-04 and introduces the incorporation of the new and more restrictive maintenance requirements found in AWL Issue No. 017.00 dated 15 June 2023. It updates the maintenance schedules to include new tasks and reduced limits compared to previous versions. The directive also allows the use of later approved revisions of the AWL publication for compliance.
Why it matters
Compliance with AD CF-2023-54 is critical for operators and maintenance organizations to maintain the safety and airworthiness of affected Airbus Canada BD-500 series aircraft. Failure to update maintenance schedules with the latest Airworthiness Limitations could lead to unsafe conditions and regulatory non-compliance. This directive ensures that maintenance programs reflect the most current safety standards and regulatory approvals.
