AD: Empresa Brasileira de Aeronautica S.A. (EMBRAER)

AD NUMBER: 2012-19-06

PRODUCT: All Embraer Model EMB-135 airplanes, and Model EMB-145, -145ER, -145MR, -145LR, -145MP, and -145EP airplanes.
SUBJECT: Airworthiness Directive 2012-19-06
ACTION: Final Rule

SUMMARY: This AD was prompted by a report of a lightning strike hitting an airplane tail boom causing certain rear bulkhead parts to jam an elevator control rod. This AD requires installing or reworking, as applicable, metallic diverters and aluminum sheets; modifying the light assembly on the tail boom rear movable fairing; and replacing the hood assembly with a new hood assembly and rerouting its electrical harness.

The FAA is issuing this AD to prevent lightning strikes from causing certain parts to contact the airplane pitch control system, which could reduce airplane controllability.

DATES: This AD becomes effective October 29, 2012.

FMI: AD
