AD: Bombardier

AD NUMBER: 2008-23-11
MANUFACTURER: Bombardier
SUBJECT: Airworthiness Directive 2008-23-11
SUMMARY: The FAA is superseding an existing airworthiness directive (AD), which applies to certain Bombardier Model CL-600-2B19 airplanes.

That AD currently requires repetitive eddy current inspections for cracking of the main landing gear (MLG) main fittings, and replacement with new or serviceable MLG main fittings if necessary.

The existing AD also currently requires servicing the MLG shock struts; inspecting the MLG shock struts for nitrogen pressure, visible chrome dimension, and oil leakage; and performing corrective actions, if necessary.

For certain airplanes,this new AD requires replacement of the MLG main fittings with new improved MLG main fittings,which would terminate the repetitive inspections of the MLG main fittings and inspection and servicing of the MLG shock struts. This AD results from premature failure of the MLG main fittings.

We are issuing this AD to prevent failure of the MLG main fittings, which could result in collapse of the MLG upon landing.
