This Airworthiness Directive requires operators of Mystere‑Falcon 50 aeroplanes (S/N 251 together with S/N 253 and subsequent) that have not had modification M3093 to inspect the electrical feeder bundle, repair any damage, and reroute it per Dassault Service Bulletin F50‑483. Operators must comply by 12 August 2008; the directive (effective 30 August 2007) responds to EASA reports of chafing that could cause electrical power loss, smoke or fire.
