Airworthiness Directive 2005-24-05
one-timeAirworthiness Directives; Boeing Vertol Model 107-II Helicopters
What this AD requires
This amendment adopts a new airworthiness directive (AD) for Boeing Vertol (Boeing) Model 107-II helicopters. This action requires a visual and magnetic particle inspection of the quill shaft. This amendment is prompted by the discovery of cracks in a quill shaft during a routine inspection. The actions specified in this AD are intended to detect a fatigue crack in a quill shaft and prevent separation of the quill shaft between the aft transmission and the mix box assembly, loss of rotor synchronization, and subsequent loss of control of the helicopter.
Which aircraft AD 2005-24-05 applies to
Applies to all serial numbers, with a quill shaft P/N 107D2067 (all dash numbers) and a spiral bevel pinion gear P/N 107D2215 installed. Certificated in any category.
Whether AD 2005-24-05 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:
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.
