Airworthiness Directives; Schweizer Aircraft Corporation Model 269C, C-1, and D Helicopters

What this AD requires

This amendment adopts a new airworthiness directive (AD) for the Schweizer Aircraft Corporation (Schweizer) Model 269C, C-1, and D helicopters. This action requires inspecting, modifying, and testing the lateral control trim actuator assembly on certain serial-numbered helicopters. This amendment is prompted by three reported incidents of the inner spring tube separating from the lateral trim control housing resulting in a lateral cyclic control restriction. The actions specified in this AD are intended to prevent separation of the inner spring tube from the lateral trim control housing and the associated loss of trim control, increased local resistance to right cyclic stick movement, and an emergency landing or subsequent loss of control of the helicopter.

Serial-conditional — narrows to serials 1865–1874, 0169–0191, 0044–0050.

Part-conditional — 269A7316-13.

S/N 1865-1874 (prefix S) applies to Model 269C; S/N 0169-0191 applies to Model 269C-1; S/N 0044-0050 (A suffix) applies to Model 269D Configuration A. Applies only if lateral control trim actuator assembly P/N 269A7316-13 is installed, except an actuator assembly with a 0.030 in drilled hole in the lateral trim control housing through the wall of the inner spring tube socket.

Whether AD 2005-10-12 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 compliance — The specific action taken (inspected, replaced, modified) and to what revision.

Date — When the work was done.

Aircraft time — Total time in service / tach at compliance — how recurring next-due is computed.

Signature & certificate — The A&P/IA who returned it to service, with certificate number.

Is AD 2005-10-12 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.
