Plain English Summary

3/10 complexity

This Airworthiness Directive requires operators of Bell Model 230 helicopters (serial numbers 23001–23038) to carry out the inspections and any corrective actions described in Transport Canada AD CF‑99‑13. The AD took effect on 30 August 2007 and set a deadline of 30 September 2007 for the initial inspection.

Aircraft owners/operators pay for inspections and repairs; the Civil Aviation Safety Authority (through its delegate) enforces compliance. Practically, it compels operators to schedule inspections/repairs per the foreign AD and may ground affected aircraft until compliant, creating parts and scheduling costs.
