AD: Pacific Aerospace Limited

AD NUMBER: 2011-23-11

MANUFACTURER: Pacific Aerospace Limited Airplanes
SUBJECT: Airworthiness Directive 2011-23-11
ACTION: Final rule

SUMMARY: The FAA is adopting a new airworthiness directive (AD) for Pacific Aerospace Limited Model FU24 Airplanes. This AD results from mandatory continuing airworthiness information (MCAI) issued by an aviation authority of another country to identify and correct an unsafe condition on an aviation product.

The MCAI describes the unsafe condition as:

Investigation of a recent Cresco 08-600 accident identified a risk of the hopper lid interfering with the opening of the canopy in the event of an emergency landing. The pilot was prevented from opening the canopy by the hopper lid in the fully forward open position. This AD is issued due to the fact that the hopper lid installation on the accident aircraft was an unapproved modification and the Fletcher FU24 hopper installation is a similar design to the Cresco 08-600.

DATES: This AD is effective December 15, 2011

FMI: AD
