AD: EADS-PZL

AD NUMBER: 2009-09-04

MANUFACTURER: EADS-PZL "Warszawa-Okecie" S.A. Model PZL-104 WILGA 80 Airplanes
SUBJECT: Airworthiness Directive 2009-09-04

SUMMARY: We are adopting a new airworthiness directive (AD) for the products listed above. This AD results from mandatory continuing airworthiness information (MCAI) issued by the aviation authority of another country to identify and correct an unsafe condition on an aviation product. The MCAI describes the unsafe condition as:

An inspection of a PZL-104 aeroplane that had a relatively long operational background revealed a severe corrosion of the steel front fuselage structural elements.
It is likely that such corrosion can also be present on other aeroplanes of similar design and operational history.
If left uncorrected, this condition could lead to loss of strength of the structural front posts elements and consequent reduction of the structural strength of the aeroplane.

This AD requires actions that are intended to address the unsafe condition described in the MCAI.
