Urgent CASA AD: Parachutes de France

Applicability: Parachutes de France Techno 240-B Reserve Parachute, part number R 01-240-B, all serial numbers.

Requirement: Replace the slider and the steering lines as specified in Parachutes de France Service Bulletin BSV_06_001, dated 8 June 2006; and use only the parachute packing method specified in the Requirement document.

Note: EASA Emergency AD 2006-0160-E refers.

Compliance: Before use of an affected parachute.

This Amendment becomes effective on 14 June 2006.

Background: The European Aviation Safety Authority (EASA) has determined that the opening altitude loss/opening time of the Techno 240-B reserve parachute is not acceptable. Also, EASA has rejected the manufacturer’s proposed solution, Safety Bulletin BSC_06_002 dated 21.04.2006. As a consequence, the original issue of this directive prohibited use of all Techno 240-B reserve parachutes. This was considered to be an interim action until an acceptable solution was achieved. Amendment 1 is issued in response to a new EASA AD, which requires compliance with a new manufacturer’s service bulletin before further use of any affected parachute.
