Summary
The document titled NOT ADOPTED - EASA DECISION ATTACHED is an EASA decision regarding the suspension of adoption of FAA Airworthiness Directive 2021-26-02. This FAA AD applies to Gulfstream Aerospace Corporation Model GV and GV-SP aeroplanes and addresses the omission of a life limit for a main landing gear trunnion pin in the maintenance manual. EASA decided not to adopt the FAA AD due to more conservative life cycle limits required during their validation process for safe-life landing gear components.
What changed
EASA has suspended the adoption of FAA AD 2021-26-02, which originally required revising the airworthiness limitation section to establish a life limit for the affected main landing gear trunnion pin on Gulfstream Model GV and GV-SP aircraft. This suspension reflects EASA's determination that their required life limits are more conservative than those specified in the FAA AD.
Why it matters
This decision impacts aviation professionals by clarifying that operators and maintenance organizations must follow EASA's more conservative life limits for the landing gear components rather than the FAA's AD requirements. Compliance teams need to be aware that the FAA AD is not adopted by EASA, affecting maintenance planning and regulatory compliance for Gulfstream GV and GV-SP operators in Europe.
