Note 1: FAA AD 2006-19-10 Amdt 39-14767 refers.
Note 2: Requirement 2 remains unchanged from the original issue

Requirement 1: Within 50 hours time in service or 180 days after
23 November 2006, whichever occurs first; unless already
accomplished.
Requirement 2: Within 50 hours time in service or 180 days after
13 October 2005, whichever occurs first; unless already
accomplished.
Note: The compliance date for Requirement 2
of this Airworthiness Directive remains unchanged by this
amendment. This Amendment becomes effective on 24 October
2006.
Background:
The FAA received information from the manufacturer that the crew
seats, under emergency landing dynamic loads, may fold forward at
less than the 26g required by the regulations. The actions required
by this Directive are intended to prevent the crew seats from
folding forward during emergency landing dynamic loads with
consequent occupant injury.
This amendment has been raised because the manufacturer has
developed new crew seat break-over pins to replace the old crew
seat break-over bolts. Consequently, this AD retains the action
from the original issue of replacing the crew seat recline locks on
both seats and adds the action of replacing the crew seat
break-over bolts with the new crew seat break-over pins on both
seats.
This amendment was raised to apply FAA AD 2006-19-10 which
superseded AD 2005-17-19.
