Airworthiness Directives; Eurocopter France Model SA-366G1 Helicopters

What this AD requires

This amendment adopts a new airworthiness directive (AD), applicable to Eurocopter France Model SA-366G1 helicopters, that requires replacing certain electrical modules with airworthy electrical modules. This amendment is prompted by the discovery of several defective electrical modules. The actions specified by this AD are intended to prevent loss of electrical continuity, which could cause loss of critical systems and subsequent loss of control of the helicopter.

Which aircraft AD 2000-08-06 applies to

Replace 'CONNECTRAL' green electrical module lacking a white dot with a manufacturing code from the 16th week of 1995 through the 21st week of 1996, with an airworthy module. Specific model not stated in extracted text; per Eurocopter France SB 01.25, dated May 28, 1998; related to DGAC (France) AD 98-251-022(A).

Whether AD 2000-08-06 actually applies to your aircraft (by serial and installed parts) and whether it’s already complied with comes from that aircraft’s records.

How AD compliance is recorded

A valid compliance record (14 CFR 43.9) states:

Method of complianceThe specific action taken (inspected, replaced, modified) and to what revision.
DateWhen the work was done.
Aircraft timeTotal time in service / tach at compliance — how recurring next-due is computed.
Signature & certificateThe A&P/IA who returned it to service, with certificate number.
Is AD 2000-08-06 complied with on your aircraft?

Tailplate reads a tail number’s logbooks and matches every applicable AD — including this one — to its compliance evidence, with recurring next-due dates computed.

Applicability is derived from the FAA directive corpus and is advisory, not a legal airworthiness determination. Compliance is established only from an aircraft’s actual records.
