Plain English Summary

3/10 complexity

This Civil Aviation Safety Authority Airworthiness Directive requires operators of Dassault Falcon 900EX aircraft (serial numbers 155, 157 and 602) to inspect and, where necessary, repair or modify landing‑gear structural components by following EASA AD 2006‑0113 and Dassault Service Bulletin F900EX‑293 (or later EASA‑approved revisions). It responds to reports that a batch of parts has inadequate corrosion protection.

The directive, effective 28 September 2006, shifts maintenance timing so operators must inspect earlier and carry the cost of inspections, repairs or part replacement.

AD/AMD 50/37	Landing Gear Components	10/2006

Applicability:	Falcon 900EX aircraft, serial numbers 155, 157, and 602 (also known as “DX” aircraft).
Requirement:	Action in accordance with EASA AD 2006-0113.Note: Dassault Aviation Service Bulletin F900EX-293 original issue, or later EASA approved revision, refers.
Compliance:	As specified in the Requirement document, with a revised effective date of28 September 2006.
	This Airworthiness Directive becomes effective on 28 September 2006.
Background:	A batch of landing gear structural components has been reported to have inadequate corrosion protection. Corrosion could occur before the scheduled inspection time, as recommended and defined in the aircraft maintenance manuals. Such corrosion, unless detected and corrected, could compromise the structural integrity of the landing gear, and lead to landing gear collapse and loss of control of the aircraft.
