Plain English Summary

3/10 complexity

This directive requires owners/operators of Embraer EMB‑110 aeroplanes with pneumatic tailplane de‑icers to carry out a mandated modification to that system per three specified manufacturer service bulletins within 100 hours TIS after 31 Oct 1982.

The change, paid for and scheduled by operators, addresses fractured de‑icer hoses that allowed ice buildup on the horizontal stabilizer and caused sudden nose‑down pitching on approach.
