Airworthiness Directives; Goodrich De-icing and Specialty Systems “FASTprop” Propeller De-icers

What this AD requires

The FAA is adopting a new airworthiness directive (AD) for Goodrich De-icing and Specialty Systems "FASTprop" propeller de- icers, part numbers P4E1188 series, P4E1601 series, P4E2200 series, P4E2271-10, P4E2575-7, P4E2575-10, P4E2598-10, P5855BSW, P6199SW, P6592SW, P6662SW, and P6975-11, installed. This AD requires inspection, repair, or replacement of those "FASTprop" propeller de-icers that fail daily visual checks. This AD results from reports of Goodrich "FASTprop" propeller de-icers becoming loose or debonded, and detaching from propeller blades during operation.

Whether AD 05-17773 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 05-17773 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.
