AD: Agusta

AD NUMBER: 2009-12-07

MANUFACTURER: Agusta S.p.A. Model A109E, A109S, A119, and AW119MKII Helicopters
SUBJECT: Airworthiness Directive 2009-12-07

SUMMARY: We are adopting a new airworthiness directive (AD) for Agusta S.p.A. (Agusta) Model A109E, A109S, A119, and AW119MKII helicopters. This AD results from mandatory continuing airworthiness information (MCAI) originated by an aviation authority of another country to identify and correct an unsafe condition on an aviation product. The European Aviation Safety Agency (EASA), the Technical Agent for the aviation authority of Italy, with which we have a bilateral agreement, has issued an MCAI AD which states that two cases of cracks on a certain cargo hook lever (lever) have been reported by the manufacturer of the cargo hook. This lever is a critical structural component of the cargo hook, and a crack could result in inadvertent loss of the cargo hook load. This AD requires actions that are intended to address the unsafe condition caused by cracks in the cargo hook lever.
