Inspect the S/N of each of the Flap Actuators P/N 601R93101-25 installed on the aircraft.b. If the S/N is listed below, replace the Flap Actuator with P/N 601R93101-25 that does not have one of the following serial numbers:3278, 3401, 3512, 3526, 3597, 3599, 3606, 3738, 3806, 3861, 4066, 4284, 4315, 4401, 4499, 4538, 4582, 4658, 4979, 5007, 5094, 6422, 6969, and 7867

Note 3: Serial number verification of the affected actuator conducted by a review of the aircraft maintenance records also satisfies Requirement 2 of this AD.3. Replacement of Flap Actuator P/N 601R93101-21 or 601R93101-25 with serial numbers listed in Requirement 1 and 2 of this AD is not allowed on any aircraft unless the serial numbers of the Actuators listed in Requirement 1 of this AD are identified with suffix “A”, and those Actuators listed in Requirement 2 of this AD are identified with suffix “B”.Note 4: Serial number suffix “A” or “B” indicates that a conforming gear set has been installed.Note 5: Transport Canada AD CF-2009-13 dated 26 March 2009 refers.

Compliance:	For Requirement 1.a. - Within 100 flight cycles from the effective date of this AD.For Requirement 1.b. - Before further flight.For Requirement 2.a. - Within 500 flight cycles from the effective date of this AD.For Requirement 2.b. - Before further flight.For Requirement 3 - As of the effective date of this AD.
	This Airworthiness Directive becomes effective on 2 July 2009.
Background:	A number of Flap Actuators with P/N 601R93101-21 and 601R93101-25 were identified as having pinion gears that did not have acceptable certificates of conformance from the supplier. This condition could result in flap failure. To correct this, operators are required to replace the Inboard Flap Actuators that are non-conforming.
