AD: Gulfstream Aerospace Corporation Airplanes

AD NUMBER: 2018-12-07

PRODUCT: Certain Gulfstream Aerospace Corporation Model GVI (G 650) airplanes.

ACTION: Final Rule.

SUMMARY: The FAA is superseding Airworthiness Directive (AD) 2015-24-06 for the aircraft listed above.

AD 2015-24-06 required repetitive breakaway torque checks and torqueing of the main landing gear (MLG) brake inlet self-sealing couplings and inserting a dispatch and takeoff limitation to the limitations section of the airplane flight manual. This AD requires modifying the MLG and brake assembly.

This AD was prompted by reports of the selfsealing couplings on the MLG brake inlet fitting backing out of the fully seated position.

DATES: This AD is effective July 23, 2018.

COST: The FAA estimates that this AD affects 162 airplanes of U.S. registry. The estimated cost for replacement of brake hose assemblies, inspection of brake assembly attachment bolts, and modification of the brake assembly is $20,343.50 for parts and labor.

FMI: AD
