AD: Bell Helicopter Textron Helicopters

AD NUMBER: 2016-21-01

PRODUCT: certain Bell Helicopter Textron (Bell) Model 430 helicopters.

ACTION: Final Rule

SUMMARY: This AD requires establishing a life limit for a certain main rotor hub attachment bolt (bolt) and removing from service each bolt that has met or exceeded its life limit.

This AD was prompted by a documentation error that omitted the life limit of a certain partnumbered bolt from the Airworthiness Limitations section of the maintenance manual.

The actions of this AD are intended to establish a life limit for a certain part-numbered bolt to prevent failure of a bolt, failure of a main rotor hub, and subsequent loss of control of a helicopter.

DATES: This AD is effective November 18, 2016.
