| Background: | During the acceptance test procedure of returned inboard flap actuators an excessive wear condition was identified regarding endplay between the flap actuator and ball screw. Excessive wear of the screw and ball nut could potentially lead to a flap system jam. A TR has been made to the Bombardier CL-600-2B19 Maintenance Requirements Manual Appendix A, CMR to ensure that unacceptable wear on the nut and ball screw is detected and corrected.This amendment reduces the initial compliance interval.The original issue of this AD became effective on 15 January 2009. |
