AD NUMBER: 2020-01-13
PRODUCT: All Dassault Aviation Model MYSTERE-FALCON 200 airplanes.
ACTION: Final rule
SUMMARY: The FAA is superseding Airworthiness Directive (AD) 2018-19-26, which applied to all Dassault Aviation Model MYSTERE-FALCON 200 airplanes.
AD 2018-19-26 required revising the existing maintenance or inspection program, as applicable, to incorporate new or more restrictive maintenance requirements and airworthiness limitations.
This AD continues to require revising the existing maintenance or inspection program, as applicable, to incorporate new or more restrictive airworthiness limitations.
This AD was prompted by a determination that new or more restrictive airworthiness limitations are necessary.
DATES: This AD is effective March 5, 2020.
COST: The FAA estimates that this AD affects 9 airplanes of U.S. registry. Operators may incur the following costs in order to comply with this AD:
The FAA estimates the total cost per operator for the retained actions from AD 2018-19-26 to be $7,650 (90 work-hours x $85 per work-hour).
The FAA has determined that revising the existing maintenance or inspection program takes an average of 90 work-hours per operator, although the FAA recognizes that this number may vary from operator to operator. In the past, the FAA has estimated that this action takes 1 work-hour per airplane.
Since operators incorporate maintenance or inspection program changes for their affected fleet(s), the FAA has determined that a per-operator estimate is more accurate than a per-airplane estimate. Therefore, the FAA estimates the total cost per operator to be $7,650 (90 work-hours x $85 per work-hour).
